Best 6 Sloppy Lasagna My Way Recipes

CLASSIC LASAGNA

Steps:

• Make the sauce: Heat oil in a large, heavy bottomed pot over medium heat. Add sausage, if using, and cook, stirring occasionally, until it's starting to brown but not yet crisp, about 5 minutes.
• Add onion and garlic and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is totally softened and translucent (without letting it brown), 8 to 10 minutes. Add tomato paste and continue to cook, stirring until the tomato paste has turned a deeper brick red color, tinting the oil and onions a fiery orange color, about 2 minutes.
• Using your hands, crush the whole tomatoes into smaller, bite-size pieces and add them and the crushed tomatoes, stirring to scrape up any bits from the bottom of the pot. Fill one of the tomato cans halfway with water and add it to the pot. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomato sauce has thickened and flavors have come together, 20 to 30 minutes.
• Make the lasagna: Heat oven to 375 degrees and set a large pot of salted water to boil.
• Set aside 1 cup mozzarella. In a medium bowl, combine remaining mozzarella, ricotta, 1 cup Parmesan and cream; season with salt and pepper and set aside.
• Cook lasagna noodles in the large pot of salted boiling water until just softened (before they are even aldente), about 4 minutes. Drain and separate any noodles that are trying to stick together, slicking them with a bit of olive oil to prevent them from sticking further.
• Spoon a bit of sauce on the bottom of a 3-quart baking dish and top with a layer of noodles, avoiding any heavy overlap.
• Top with about 1 ¼ cups of sauce, and dollop ¼ of the cheese mixture over. Top with another layer of noodles and repeat three more times, ending with the last of the noodles (depending on size of the noodle/shape of the baking dish, you may have a few extra noodles) and the last of the sauce. Top with reserved 1 cup mozzarella and more Parmesan, if you like.
• Cover loosely with aluminum foil and place baking dish on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet (to prevent any overflow from burning on the bottom of your oven).
• Bake until pasta is completely tender and cooked through and sauce is bubbling up around the edges, 30 to 40 minutes. Remove foil and increase temperature to 450 degrees. Continue to bake until lasagna is golden brown on top with frilly, crispy edges and corners, another 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool slightly before eating.

EASY LAZY LASAGNA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rapid boil. Cook egg noodles at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, 7 to 9 minutes. Drain.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground beef and sausage in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease. Pour marinara sauce into the meat. Stir in drained egg noodles, 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, onion powder, garlic salt, and Italian seasoning; mix until incorporated. Pour mixture into an 8-inch square casserole dish and top with mozzarella cheese and remaining Parmesan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is golden brown, about 25 minutes.

SLOPPY LASAGNA, MY WAY

Steps:

• 1. Break up the lasagna noodles. If you want to use the old fashioned kind that you have to boil, feel free, but these are so much faster! Brown the beef with onion and carrot, drain well, add garlic and red sauce. Combine ricotta and some of the parmesan, blend together. So let's put it together...
• 2. Into the bottom of your baking dish (I use a deep 9x13), put a little of the red sauce and a splash of the alfredo. Toss in some pasta, evenly. Add some ricotta and parmesan blend in little spoonfulls which don't really have to be spread out. Sprinkle with a little Italian seasoning. Continue to layer. End with sauces on top.
• 3. Bake in a 350 degree oven for about 30 min. Since I don't like my mozzarella cheese crunchy, I wait until about 4-5 min before done and top it then. I sprinkle the parmesan on first, then the mozzarella.

SLOPPY LASAGNA (INSTANT POT)

Steps:

• Select browning and add a tablespoon butter and olive oil to the pressure cooking pot.
• When butter has melted, add onion, thyme, oregano, salt, and pepper. Stir occasionally until onion has softened. Stir in the carrot and celery.
• Move the contents to the side of the pressure cooker. Add the beef and garlic and stir to break up. Saute, stirring occasionally, until the beef is brown on at least one side and the juices have evaporated, about 5 minutes. Pour in the crushed tomatoes.
• Close and lock the lid of the pressure cooker. Cook at high pressure for 18 minutes. When beep sounds turn pressure cooker offer and use a quick pressure release. When valve drops carefully remove the lid.
• Remove and discard the herb stems. Add the remaining tablespoon of butter to the sauce and stir until melted.
• Add the salt and lasagna strips to the sauce in the pressure cooking pot. Pour in enough water to cover the pasta. I added a cup of water. Smooth down the top pieces of pasta so they are submerged.
• Close and lock the lid of the pressure cooker. Cook at low pressure for 5 minutes, or half the cooking time indicated on the pasta package. when beep sounds, turn pressure cooker off and use a quick pressure release. When valve drops carefully remove the lid. Taste the noodles and if you'd like them a little softer, cook on simmer until the noodles are tender.
• Pour the lasagna into a large serving dish. Sprinkle the mozzarella over the lasagna and stir. Let stand, uncovered for 2 minutes before serving.
