Reserve 8 Tablespoons of Parmesan and 8 Tablespoons of mozzarella�this will be the topping later. To assemble the lasagna, line each section of an 8-cup nonstick muffin pan with a round wonton wrapper. Put a little Parmesan, a little mozzarella, and a little ricotta into each mold. Top with a little spinach and a spoonful of sauce. Repeat layers of wonton wrappers, three cheeses, spinach, and tomato sauce, creating six layers in all, and ending with sauce. Sprinkle each with reserved Parmesan and mozzarella on top. Bake until nicely browned, about 20 minutes. Add basil leaves for garnish. Serves 8. |
