Meat Free Monday: Artichoke Spinach Lasagna

This is what my family will be having for dinner tonight.  If you like artichoke and spinach… you’ll love this dish.  Its tastes reminds me a lot of a vegetable lasagna but with different ingredients than your typical veggy lasgna.  The artichokes and feta chees give it a new taste that my family happens to enjoy.

Artichoke Spinach Lasagna

Ingredients

• cooking spray
• 9 uncooked lasagna noodles
• 1 onion, chopped
• 4 cloves garlic, chopped
• 1 (14.5 ounce) can vegetable broth
