You're welcome. You even went a step up from what I usually do which is
to cook the lentils in the sauce as we would meat. The spinach sounds
great!
Another nice version popular with our guests is to roll up the cooked
lasagne noodles with the filling (meat or lentils and cheese) and bake
them in the sauce. Makes portioning easy and neat too.
