A lot of work but well worth the effort. A truly delicious take on lasagna.
Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and heat oven to 400 degrees. Dissolve 1-1/2 tablespoons salt in a 9?x13? glass lasanga pan and fill with very hot tap water. Add noodles and soak until softened, about 10 minutes. Drain in a colander.
Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring, until tender and well browned, 5-7 minutes. Add spinach and continue to cook, stirring and seasoning with salt and pepper to taste, until heated through. Transfer to a medium bowl.
Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil and garlic in a saucepan over medium-high heat. When garlic starts to sizzle, add tomatoes and enough water to make a sauce that is neither too thin nor too thick [I just realized I forgot to do this so I don't think you need too much water]. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to medium-low, and continue to simmer, partially covered, to blend flavors, about 10 minutes.
Mix mushroom-spinach mixture with basil, 8 oz. of the cream cheese and 1/4 cup broth. Mix remaining 4 oz. cream cheese with remaining 1/4 cup broth in a small bowl; set aside.
To assemble: smear 1/4 cup marinara sauce over bottom of baking dish, then assemble 4 layers as follows:
3 lasagna noodles
scant cup marinara
scant cup mushroom-spinach mixture
3/4 cup mozzarella
2 tablespoons Parmesan
(repeat)
Top with remaining 3 noodles, cream-cheese broth mixture, remaining 1 cup mozzarella, and remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan.
Spray one side of a large sheet of heavy-duty foil with cooking spray. Cover baking dish with foil, oiled side down, and bake until bubbly throughout, 40-45 minutes. Leaving lasagna on same rack, turn oven to broil. Remove foil and broil until lasagna is spotty brown, 4-5 minutes. Remove from oven and let sit for 10 minutes. Cut into squares and serve.
