Salaam!
Holy moly it’s been a while! Today I’m sharing my family’s favorite lasagna recipe. I found this recipe at Food.com a few years ago and I modified it to suit our family’s tastes. The kicker here though is that this recipe doesn’t require the noodles to be boiled before baking! I don’t know about you, but I’m all for taking shortcuts when possible 😉
Lasagna
Servings 4 Servings
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 2 tablespoons oil
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- Salt, to taste
- 9 lasagna noodles, uncooked
- 1 (26 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce (about 2½ cups)
- 16 ounces cottage cheese
- 1 egg
- ¾ cup grated parmesan cheese
- 3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 375°F and set aside a greased 9”x13” baking dish.
-
Heat the oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook the ground beef with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes until the meat is no longer rare. Mix in the spaghetti sauce and remove from heat.
-
Mix the cottage cheese, egg, and parmesan cheese and set aside.
-
Add a few spoons of the spaghetti sauce to the baking dish, making sure the bottom of the pan is coated. Place three lasagna noodles side-by-side over the sauce. Add a third of the cottage cheese mixture over the noodles, followed by a third of the spaghetti sauce, which is followed by sprinkling one cup of the mozzarella cheese. Follow this layering process two more times, ending with a final layer of mozzarella cheese.
-
Bake covered for 40 minutes; uncover and bake for an additional 15 minutes; and lastly, broil for 5 minutes until the top is brown and bubbly. Let the lasagna rest for ten minutes before serving.
