Lasagna
Ready In: 1 hr
Yields: 1 2 qt pan
Ingredients
- 12 ounces bulk Italian sausage or 12 ounces pork sausage or 12 ounces ground beef
- 1 cup chopped onion
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 (14 1/2ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
- 8 ounces tomato sauce
- 1 tablespoon dried Italian spices, crushed
- 1 teaspoon fennel seed, crushed
- 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper
- 6 dried lasagna noodles
- 1 egg
- 1 (15 ounce) container ricotta cheese
- 1⁄4 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1 1⁄2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Directions
- Sauce: Cook the sausage, onion, and garlic until meat is brown. Drain the fat.
- Stir in the next 5 ingredients; bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Cook noodles in boiling water 10-12 minutes until tender but firm. Drain, rinse with cold water and drain again. Noodles you don't have to boil should work well too.
- Filling: Mix the egg, ricotta and Parmesan cheeses together. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Spread 1/4 of the meat sauce on bottom of 2 quart rectangular baking dish. Layer 3 noodles, 1/2 filling, 1/4 of the sauce, and mozzerella cheese. Repeat layers. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese if you want.
- Place the dish on a baking pan to catch any spills. Bake 30-35 minutes until heated through. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
