Time 1h45m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 (12 ounce) packages lasagna noodles
2 pounds ricotta cheese
4 eggs
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
⅓ cup chopped fresh parsley
2 teaspoons dried basil
ground black pepper to taste
½ cup olive oil
1 ½ cups chopped onion
1 cup sliced carrots
1 ¼ cups chopped green bell pepper
1 (16 ounce) package chopped frozen broccoli, thawed and drained
3 cups chunky-style spaghetti sauce
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine ricotta cheese, eggs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, basil and ground black pepper. Stir to blend; set aside.
  • Heat oil in a large saucepan over high heat. Saute onions for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally; add carrot slices and saute about 2 minutes, then stir in green bell pepper and broccoli. Stir all together, reduce heat to medium and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Scrape veggies into ricotta mix and mix well.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Ladle 1 cup of spaghetti sauce into a 9x13 inch baking dish and spread evenly over the bottom. Place 2 strips of lasagna lengthwise in the dish, then spread about 4 cups of the filling over the pasta. Sprinkle 1 cup of the mozzarella cheese over the filling; repeat layers.
  • Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 1 hour; let stand about 15 to 20 minutes, to firm up, before serving.

This lasagna was a total flop. It was bland, watery, and the noodles were undercooked.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my lasagna turned out a complete disaster. The noodles were mushy and the cheese was burnt.

This lasagna was a good starting point, but it needs some tweaking. I would add more flavor to the sauce and use a different type of cheese.

The lasagna was a bit too watery for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if it had been baked for a little longer.
