Lasagne
Print RecipeIngredients
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 1 cup dry cottage cheese
- 2 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 egg
- 1 680ml can pasta sauce
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- 1/2 cup water
- 12 oven-ready lasagne noodles
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F.
- Mix ricotta cheese, cottage cheese, 1 1/4 cups mozzarella cheese, 1/4 cup parmesan cheese, parsley and egg until well blended. Set aside.
- Brown and drain beef, combine pasta sauce with meat in frying pan. Pour water into empty sauce can, cover and shake well. Pour into pan and stir until well mixed.
- Place 1 cup of meat sauce on bottom of 13x9 baking dish (this will stop the noodles from sticking).
- Layer 3 lasagne noodles, 1/3 of cheese mixture and 1 cup meat sauce. Repeat layers 2 more times. Top with remaining noodles and sauce.
- Sprinkle with remaining 1 1/4 cups mozzarella cheese and 1/4 cup parmesan cheese. Cover tightly with aluminum foil. (Spraying the foil with cooking spray prevents the cheese from sticking when you peel it off.) Bake 1 hour.
- Remove foil and bake an additional 15 minutes. Let stand 15 minutes before cutting for easier serving.
