I have been making lasagna for years. My family LOVES it (except for Amanda, she doesn't like ricotta cheese - I know, what kind of Italian is she?!). It is probably one of the easiest, throw together meals ever. If you have a big family make one big dish. If you have a smaller family make two; eat one, freeze one (use two 8x8 pans). Lasagna freezes really well. Just bake, freeze it and pull it out on a busy night, pop it in the microwave for a few minutes and serve.
Ingredients:
2 bags shredded mozzarella cheese
1 bag Italian shredded cheese (provolone, mozzarella)
Parmesan cheese
1 small box frozen, choppen spinach (thawed)
2 eggs
1 46 oz. container ricotta cheese
Parsely
Spaghetti sauce
Cooked lasagna noodles
*If you don't like spinach, just don't add it in. I do like to add it, because it really doesn't make that big of a difference taste wise and it gives me a chance to throw a veggie in the mix.
In a 9x13 inch baking dish.....let the layering begin! Sauce, Noodles, Sauce, Ricotta Cheese Mixture - Repeat.
When you get to the last layer sprinkle the remaining bag of mozzarella cheese on top and Bake for an hour.
Yummy!
By the way, I use pretty much the same ricotta cheese mixture for my manicotti and stuffed shells too.
