To make the filling defrost the spinach in the microwave and squeeze out all of the excess liquid. In a frying pan cook the onion over a medium heat for 5 minutes, add garlic and continue to cook for a few more minutes until the onion is soft. 
In a medium sized bowl add the spinach, onion and remaining filling ingredients and mix thoroughly.

Spread over 1/3 of the spinach filling, top with another sheet of lasagna and then a thin layer of passata, repeat until all the filling has been used. Finish with a layer of lasagna topped with a good layer of pasatta and sprinkled with parmesan. 
Bake for 25-30 minutes until pasta is soft and topping has crisped up.
