NO-COOK LASAGNA



No-Cook Lasagna image

No pre-cooking needed but your guests will never know! My adjustments to this recipe add more sauce and more cheese since I always seemed to run short when assembling this dish. This is a tried and true winner on Bridge night. For the best flavor I recommend Prego sauce flavored with Italian sausage - or brown some Italian sausage along with the ground beef for the sauce.

I like this recipe because it can be prepared a day ahead and baked just before serving, so it's a great way to avoid that last-minute rush when attending a potluck. Using packaged spaghetti sauce and noodles that are not pre-boiled makes preparation especially quick. -Denise Goedeken, Platte Center, Nebraska

Tips:

  • Choose the right noodles: Flat and wide noodles, such as lasagna noodles or fettuccine, work best for this recipe.
  • Cook the noodles al dente: This means cooking them until they are still slightly firm to the bite. This will prevent them from becoming mushy in the lasagna.
  • Don't overfill the lasagna: The lasagna should be no more than 3 layers high. Otherwise, it will be difficult to cut and serve.
  • Let the lasagna rest before cutting: This will help the lasagna to set and make it easier to cut. Allow it to rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the lasagna will taste. If possible, use homemade sauce and fresh mozzarella cheese.

This no-cook noodle lasagna is a quick and easy way to enjoy this classic Italian dish. It's perfect for busy weeknights or when you're short on time. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and satisfying lasagna that the whole family will love. So next time you're craving lasagna, give this no-cook version a try.
