For added flavor and texture, sauté 1 cup of sliced mushrooms, 1/2 cup of chopped onion, and 1 cup of baby spinach in olive oil until softened. Layer this mixture along with the cheeses and sauce. Use a high-quality tomato sauce for the best flavor. Look for one that is rich and has a good balance of acidity and sweetness. Feel free to substitute other cheeses according to your preferences. Fontina, provolone, or a blend of Italian cheeses would also work well. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave until heated through.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or olive oil. (5 minutes)
02
StepGently break the matzah sheets in half. Briefly run each piece under warm water, just enough to soften slightly and make pliable (do not over-soak, or they will fall apart). (5 minutes)
03
StepIn a bowl, season the tomato sauce with salt and pepper to your liking. (2 minutes)
04
StepSpread a thin layer of the seasoned tomato sauce on the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Begin layering with the softened matzah, followed by slices of Swiss cheese, a generous sprinkle of mozzarella cheese, and a layer of tomato sauce. (15 minutes)
05
StepRepeat layering until all the Swiss and mozzarella cheeses are used, finishing with a layer of matzah. (10 minutes)
06
StepTop the final matzah layer with the remaining tomato sauce, then sprinkle evenly with Parmesan cheese and oregano. (3 minutes)
07
StepBake in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden brown, approximately 25 to 30 minutes. (30 minutes)
08
StepLet stand for 10 minutes before cutting and serving. This allows the lasagna to set slightly, making it easier to serve. (10 minutes)
