Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray. (if you like your lasagna thicker then you can use a dish that is a little bit smaller)
2. Place 1 Tablespoon of Olive oil in a pan and heat on medium-high. Saute onion and garlic for 3 minutes, or until onion is tender-crisp. Stir in broth and rosemary; bring to a boil. Stir in black olives,artichoke hearts and spinach; reduce heat, cover and simmer 5 minutes. Stir in pasta sauce and simmer for 5 minutes more.
3. Spread 1/4 of the artichoke mixture in the bottom of the prepared baking dish; top with 3 oven ready noodles. Sprinkle 3/4 cup mozzarella cheese over noodles. Repeat layers 2 more times, ending with artichoke mixture and mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle crumbled feta on top.
4. Bake, covered, for 35 minutes. Uncover, and bake 15 minutes more, or until hot and bubbly. Let stand 5-10 minutes before cutting.
