  1. Use any old recipe, and use the "no cook" lasagna noodles. You can put them in without cooking, saves time and energy.


  2. Easy Lasagna

    1 pound lean ground beef

    1 (32 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce

    32 ounces cottage cheese

    3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

    2 eggs

    1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

    2 teaspoons dried parsley

    salt to taste

    ground black pepper to taste

    9 lasagna noodles

    1/2 cup water

    DIRECTIONS

    In a large skillet over medium heat brown the ground beef. Drain the grease. Add spaghetti sauce and simmer for 5 minutes.

    In a large bowl, mix together the cottage cheese, 2 cups of the mozzarella cheese, eggs, half of the grated Parmesan cheese, dried parsley, salt and ground black pepper.

    To assemble, in the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish evenly spread 3/4 cup of the sauce mixture. Cover with 3 uncooked lasagna noodles, 1 3/4 cup of the cheese mixture, and 1/4 cup sauce. Repeat layers twice. Top with 3 noodles, remaining sauce, remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheese. Add 1/2 water to the edges of the pan. Cover with aluminum foil.

    Bake in a preheated 350 degree F(175 degrees C) oven for 45 minutes. Uncover and bake an additional 10 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before serving

  3. below.

  4. 1 lb. 90% lean ground beef

    1/2 cup diced onion

    15 oz. ricotta cheese (part-skim is okay)

    2 large eggs, lightly beaten

    1-1/2 cups shredded asiago cheese, divided

    1 cup shredded parmesan cheese

    1 Tbsp. dried Italian seasoning

    1 tsp. garlic powder

    1/2 tsp. black pepper

    2 26 oz. jars spaghetti sauce

    12 oven-ready, no-boil lasagna noodles (such as Barilla)

    1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

    Preparation:

    Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a 9 x 13 baking dish with cooking spray.

    Brown ground beef and onion. Drain, if it's oily. Set aside.

    Mix ricotta cheese, eggs, 1/2 cup of the shredded asiago cheese, the Italian seasoning, garlic powder and pepper together. Set aside.

    Place about 3/4 cup of the spaghetti sauce on the bottom of the prepared pan. Top with four of the lasagna noodles (it's okay to overlap the noodles, if necessary).

    Top with half of the ricotta cheese mixture, then half of the ground beef, then the remaining asiago cheese, then one third of the remaining spaghetti sauce.

    Repeat layers: four lasagna noodles, remaining ricotta mixture, remaining ground beef, the shredded Parmesan cheese, and one-third of the spaghetti sauce.

    Top with the remaining four lasagna noodles and remaining spaghetti sauce.

    Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the top.

    Cover with aluminum foil, and bake 40 minutes.

    Remove cover, and bake an additional 10-15 minutes until bubbly, and the cheese is golden brown.

    Important! Let the lasagna rest at least 15 minutes before serving. Otherwise, it will come out as a gloopy mess when you cut it.

  5. I would recommend buying oven ready pasta, that way you don't have to boil it, you just place it in the oven. Follow these steps, this is a family recipe, but Ill give it to you!

    buy:

    1.oven ready pasta

    2. 1.5 lb of lean ground beef, or just regular

    3. Classic Spaghetti sauce (regular)

    4. Lee & Perrins sauce

    5. 2 bags of mexican blend cheese & one of mozzarella

    6.heavy whipped cream

    5 hours before, marinate the ground beef with a tea spoon of mustard,  2 table spoons of Lee & Perrine's sauce, and a spoonful of sugar

    Let it marinate in the fridge. 5 hours later, ( you can do this also if you are cooking immediately) Add a drop of olive oil into a large saucepan and cook ground beef until it looks brown. Once its cooked, Add the spaghetti sauce to it and stir it together. Then start preparing the pasta.

    Ad a layer of pasta on the bottom, followed by a thick layer of ground beef, add a layer of mix of cheese, then a small layer of cream. Add a layer of pasta once again and to finish it top it with a large layer of cheese. Let it cook at 450 degrees in the oven for about 50 min. or until you see it is ready. Good luck and hope you like it!

  6. try this link are go to youtube they will take you step by step

    ngredients

    1 16 oz box of Barilla no-boil lasagna noodles

    1 lb of ground beef

    1 28 oz jar of the sauce of your choice

    1 12 oz can tomato paste

    1 14.5 oz can of diced tomatoes

    4 oz Parmesan cheese, finely grated

    8 oz Mozzarella cheese, sliced

    Italian seasoning

    garlic powder

    basil

    thyme

    minced onions

    oregano

       1. Pour sauce, paste, and tomatoes into a sauce pan over low heat.  Add seasoning, such as thyme, basil, Italian Seasoning, oregano, onion, and garlic, until it reaches the desired flavor.  Let it simmer, stirring occasionally, while you prepare the meat. This will help bring out the flavor  

       2. In a large frying pan cook the ground beef until it is completely browned. As it cooks add some onion, garlic and Italian seasoning for flavor .

       3. Put a thin layer (approx. 1 cup) of sauce in the bottom of a greased 9x13x3 inch pan.  Place 4 noodles over the sauce overlapping slightly.  They should not be touching the sides of the pan because they will expand as they cook.

       4. Cover the noodles completely with another layer sauce. On top of the sauce put a layer of meat, followed by a layer of mozzarella cheese, and a light layer of parmesan cheese.

       5. Add another layer of noodles, then sauce, then meat, and then cheese.  Continue this sequence until you have competed 4 layers, ending with sauce.  Cover the top with the remaining cheese.

       6. Cover with a lid or aluminum foil.  Make sure the foil does not touch the surface of Lasagna. If neccessary, toothpicks can be used to hold it up.  

       7. Bake at 375 degrees for 50-60 minutes until bubbling.  Uncover for the last 5-10 minutes until cheese is browned.

       8. Let it sit for 15 minutes before eating.

    DIRECTIONS

       1. In a Dutch oven, cook sausage, ground beef, onion, and garlic over medium heat until well browned. Stir in crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, tomato sauce, and water. Season with sugar, basil, fennel seeds, Italian seasoning, 1 tablespoon salt, pepper, and 2 tablespoons parsley. Simmer, covered, for about 1 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally.

       2. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook lasagna noodles in boiling water for 8 to 10 minutes. Drain noodles, and rinse with cold water. In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese with egg, remaining parsley, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.

    BOTTOM

    Cook in preheated oven at 350 for half ower


  14. Try this link out: http://simplycooking.wordpress.com/2007/...

  15. Cook the pasta and the beef.  Put a small layer of sauce on bottom (so the pasta doesn't burn to the bottom), then layers

    pasta, beef, sauce, cheese

    Do the layers a few times and top with lots of yummy cheese.  Then bake til cheese on top is melty and just starting to brown.  I like using Parmesan and mozzarella cheeses.  Some people also use feta or cottage cheeses.

  16. first boil the pasta  and after is ready  put a  butter covering the bottom of the mold and put layers of the pasta on top until the whole thing is cover /

    then you will need  ground beef ,  and ragu on top then cheese , after that put another layer of pasta on top of the meat and then a little bit of meat again on top and covering it with pasta for last time and then on the top put cheese.

  17. Never put cheese & sauce in each layer.. gets too messy... Being Italian I have been forced & bred to cook...

    Do sauce on bottom... then layer of pasta, then cheese, then pasta, then cheese, then pasta, then sauce, and continue.. (but not too many layers)... Then top with Mozzarella & some sauce (NEVER JAR SAUCE - My mom would have a heart attack - hahaha!!!)... Also in the Ricotta like 3-5 eggs, depending on the consistency you like... Good Luck!!! Now Im hungry! Ugh!!!
