Spinach Lasagna

I wanted to make a Spinach Lasagna because I have some lasagna pasta noodles in the cupboard that have been there for a while and Spinach is good for you.

I found a recipe for Easy Spinach Lasagna.  I had made some Creamy Roasted Tomato Garlic Sauce that I had made using 3 Roma tomatoes.  I wanted the sauce to be "runny" instead of thick, so I turned off the Vitamix after 2 minutes instead of the instructed 4 minutes.

I'm not really sure if the lasagna pasta noodles are supposed to extend the whole length of the pan or if I was just using a really big pan, so I just staggered them.

Here is a picture of the uncooked Lasagna.

I only ran into a few problems making this dish.  

1. I skimmed the recipe, and thought I was making a really big lasagna.  The recipe makes it sound like there will be layers and layers in this lasagna.  I thought that I could just halve the recipe and make half the layers.  I didn't realize my mistake until I had already started making the lasagna.
2. I forgot to add the Parmesan cheese to the ricotta/spinach mixture.  I didn't realize this until I was doing the top layer.  I lifted the last layer of noodles and sprinkled some Parmesan cheese on the lasagna.  I then added the last layer of noodles and sprinkled the top with what was left of the Parmesan cheese.
3. I used shredded Mozzarella instead of 1/4 inch thick slices.  This wasn't a mistake, although next time, I think I would use the 1/4 inch slices.  The cheese on top was kind of hard because we cooked it for so long, and it was so small.
4. I didn't have enough pasta sauce.  Since I thought I would only need half the ingredients, I thought I would only need half the amount of pasta sauce as well.  I also don't like lasagna with too much sauce, so I figured I wouldn't even need half.  This may have contributed to the dryness of the noodles.  I kind of ran out of sauce on the top layer, so there wasn't as much.  I wanted to put more on the top layer since if you don't put enough sauce on the top layer, the noodles on the top layer can be rather dry.

I hate when recipes say "salt and pepper to taste" or just tell you to add salt or pepper, but don't tell you the amount.  It should be obvious that you would add the amount of salt and pepper to your tastes.
