Need easy recipe for lasagna?

An easy recipe for making lasagna is this: it is actually a recipe from a kid's cookbook and is SUPER EASY , fast and way way better than store bought:

12 oz ground beef (cook till browned and then drain with your colander)
2 1/2 cups of jar spaghetti sauce
6 lasagna noodles (plain, everyday noodles DO NOT COOK them as the liquid of the sauce will do that for you)
1 1/2 cups of cottage cheese
1 1/2 cups of shredded mozzarella (6 oz or so)
2 Tbsp grated parmesan cheese optional

Cook your ground beef until done (I season mine with oregano, little s and pepper, minced onion)
Drain it
Spoon enough sauce into your 13x9 to cover the bottom of the pan.
Pour rest of sauce into the meat. Stir.
Place 2 UNCOOKED noodles into bottom of pan.
Spread about 1/3 of your meat/sauce mix over those.
3/4 cup of cottage cheese over that.
Then sprinkle 1/2 cup of your mozzarella over the cottage cheese you just put on.

Add another 2 uncooked noodles, again 1/3rd of meat mixture, then rest of cottage cheese and 1/2 cup of mozzarella again. Layer remaining uncooked noodles, meat mixture and your cheese.

Cover tightly with foil. Put into your preheated 350 degree oven and allow to cook 1 hour. THEN let cool 15 min on cooling rack if you have one. This makes it slice without running all over the plate.

Do not be intimidate by this recipe it is not time consuming and it is easy! Your family will love this one! And don't buy special no cook noodles or spend time cooking them - total waste as there is no need. I even make manicotti without cooking the noodles! :)

What are some simple easy lasagna recipes?

We Answered:

I cooked for a guy who is really picky so I started making a simple lasagna. Use a 9x13 dish (or smaller square dish and just cut pasta in half). Cook 1lb ground chuck and drain off fat. Cook 6 pieces of lasagna pasta. Mix pre-seasoned sauce like Ragu into meat but don't use the whole jar. Just enough to moisten the meat with little extra. Spray a little non-stick in your dish and lay down 3 pasta pieces to cover the bottom. Then lay half the meat to cover pasta. Next spread a layer of casserole shredded cheese (it's a combination of cheeses). Repeat pasta, meat and cheese. Put in a 375 degree oven until cheese is melted.

If you want to add a little extra you can add in a light layer of cottage cheese or ricotta cheese between the meat and shredded cheese.

It's very yummy, cheap, and easy to make.

Stouffer's.
Sorry, but if you want good lasagna, you have to make it from scratch, and that takes time.
If you want quick lasagna instead, Stouffer's makes a credible one.
