Make your lasagna with no boil noodles and you'll never go back!

Ingredients
  

  • 9 oz no-boil lasagna noodles
  • 8 oz ricotta cheese
  • 8 oz cottage cheese
  • 4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 48 oz pasta sauce

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375˚ F.
  • In a bowl, combine ricotta cheese, cottage cheese, two cups of mozzarella cheese and Parmesan.  Set aside.
  • Brown ground beef until fully cooked.
  • In a 13×9 pan, spread 1 cup of sauce mixture on bottom of pan and then Layer the following:
    3 uncooked no-boil lasagna noodles
    1 cup sauce
    3/4 cup of the Ricotta cheese mixture
    1/3 cup of the cooked meat
    1/4 cup mozzarella
    Repeat for 3 more layers
  • Top with mozzarella cheese and cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes. Remove foil and bake an additional 10 minutes.
  • Let stand at least 15 minutes before serving.

Notes

**I make this the night before so that all I have to do the night of dinner is pop it into the oven!
**Make a tent with the foil when you cover the lasagna so as not to touch the melting cheese.
**Make the sauce however you like.  I’ve added garlic and mushrooms as well.
**The lasagna is only as good as your sauce.  I use Mid's tomato basil which I LOVE!
