Cheese Lasagna Recipe
I received a coupon for a free jar of Ragu from Influenster, so I used it to make a quick Cheese Lasagna. I buy the Ragu Chunky Tomato, Onion, and Garlic sauce, so that it's a few less steps I have to complete to add flavor my recipe. This is the FIRST time I've made a lasagna and I guess I did a pretty decent job, since my husband had three helpings. It's about a 15 minute prep and turns out delicious. Enjoy!
- 1 cup Ricotta cheese
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup of Shredded Mozzarella
- 1 egg
- 1 jar of Ragu Chunky Tomato, Onion, Garlic
- 6 uncooked Lasagna Noodles (I used Barilla Oven Ready)
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees
- Mix egg, Ricotta, Parmesan, and 3/4 cups Mozzarella together
- Spread sauce on the bottom of an 8x8 baking dish
- Place 2 Lasagna Noodles on top of sauce, I had to break the corners so they'd fit
- Spread half the cheese mixture over top the noodles
- Repeat with the sauce, noodles, cheese mixture
- Add the last of the noodles and sauce (making sure to cover noodles)
- Add the rest of the Mozzarella to the top of lasagna
- Cover with foil
- Bake for 35 minutes
- Remove foil
- Bake another 15 minutes
Serves 4-6
This is the same way I make mine ....however to avoid the overpriced cost of Ricotta, I use cottage cheese and beat an egg into it. Turns out great... a tip tho';freeze your cottage cheese the consistency changes a bit and it looks more like Ricotta when thawed,but holy moly if its frozen give it a good day to thaw!
