Kevin's Mom's Spinach Lasagne

Ingredients:
1 large jar marinara sauce (or whatever kind you like - I like ones with as little sugar as you can find) mixed with 1/4 cup water(leave this out if you don't like it moist)
1 pkg. wide lasaga noodles (extra-wide don't work as well) UNCOOKED
ricotta cheese (smallest size is fine)
about 12 ounces mozzarella cheese (more or less to taste)
1 pkg. frozen chopped spinach, thawed.

Layer: 1/4 sauce, noodles spread with ricotta cheese (one flat layer covering pan - don't overlap noodles), moz. cheese, spinach (maybe 1/3? - 1/2 is too much), 1/3 sauce, noodles with ricotta, moz., spinach, rest of sauce.

Cover with tin foil and bake in pre-heated 375 oven for 1 hour. Let stand (uncovered) for 15 minutes before serving.

Sounds good, huh? Good and fast and cheap and easy. (Sounds like I'm describing a hooker rather than a lasagne recipe :-)
