Categories     Pork

Time 1h30m

Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/4 lbs Italian sausage, casings removed (I use spicy)
1 (28 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce, of your choice
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 1/2 cups water
1 garlic clove, chopped
1 teaspoon italian seasoning
12 ounces ricotta cheese (about 3/4 small container)
3 cups grated mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
2 eggs
1 tablespoon parsley
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 (8 ounce) package lasagna noodles, uncooked

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350.
  • In large pan, brown italian sausage; drain.
  • Add spaghetti sauce, diced tomatoes, water, garlic and italian seasoning. Cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes.
  • In medium bowl, combine ricotta, 2 cups of the mozzarella, parmesan, eggs, parsley and pepper. Mix well.
  • Pour about 1 cup of the sauce on bottom of 9x13 pan.
  • Arrange 3 uncooked lasagna noodles over sauce; cover with about 1 cup sauce.
  • Spread 1/2 the cheese filling over sauce.
  • Repeat layers of lasagna, sauce and cheese filling.
  • Top with layer of lasagna and remaining sauce; sprinkle with remaining 1 cup mozzarella cheese.
  • Cover with foil and bake at 350 for 45 minutes.
  • Remove foil; bake an additional 15 minutes.
  • Let stand 10 minutes before cutting.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality pasta sauce: The sauce is the star of the show in this lasagna, so make sure you use one that you really enjoy. You can use a store-bought sauce or make your own from scratch.
  • Don't overcook the noodles: The noodles should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. This will help them hold their shape when they're baked in the lasagna.
  • Layer the lasagna properly: Make sure to layer the lasagna in the correct order: noodles, sauce, cheese, and so on. This will help the lasagna cook evenly and prevent it from becoming dry.
  • Don't skimp on the cheese: Cheese is what makes lasagna so delicious, so don't be afraid to use plenty of it. A good rule of thumb is to use about 1 pound of cheese per 9x13 inch lasagna pan.
  • Bake the lasagna until it's bubbly and golden brown: The lasagna is done baking when it's bubbly around the edges and the cheese is golden brown. This usually takes about 30-40 minutes.

Conclusion:

Creamette no-boil lasagna is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that's perfect for busy weeknights. It's also a great way to use up leftover pasta sauce. With a few simple tips, you can make a lasagna that's sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
