Question: How to make lasagna?????????????
I want to make lasagna for my boyfriend but it only has to have the noodles the sauce the cheese and the meat. Any suggestions? It has to be an easy and fast recipe.

Answers:

Well just get a basic recipe, but I'll give you some tips

either buy noodles that don't have to be parboiled or lay them out in a roasting pan and pour hot water over the top and let it set for a few minutes (you have to keep moving them around though or they'll stick together)

mix cottage cheese with the ricotta, the whey in cottage cheese has a very rich creamy flavor that the ricotta is lacking, but the cottage cheese by itself is gross.

put a layer of pepperonis over the sauce, it gives the lasagna a great spicy kick



Prep Time: 15 Min Cook Time:1 Hr 45 Min Ready In:2 Hrs


Ingredients
5-1/2 lasagna noodles 1-3/4 teaspoons olive oil 10 ounces ground beef 10 ounces bulk Italian sausage 5/8 (16 ounce) can sliced mushrooms, drained 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme 1/8 teaspoon dried basil 2-1/2 (15 ounce) cans tomato sauce salt and pepper to taste 5/8 (15 ounce) container ricotta cheese 1-3/4 eggs, beaten 3 tablespoons and 1/2 teaspoon grated Parmesan cheese 10 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese



DIRECTIONS_______
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the lasagna noodles and olive oil; cook until al dente, 8 to 10 minutes; drain.
Cook the ground beef and sausage in a large pot over medium heat; drain. Stir in the mushrooms, garlic salt, oregano, thyme, basil, and tomato sauce. Season with salt and pepper; simmer 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, mix together the ricotta cheese, eggs, and Parmesan cheese in a bowl.
Ladle enough of the meat sauce into a 9x13 inch baking dish to cover the bottom in a thin layer. Form a layer atop the sauce with 3 of the lasagna noodles. Spread about 1/4 of the ricotta cheese mixture over the noodles. Sprinkle about 1/3 of the mozzarella cheese over the ricotta cheese mixture and then ladle about 1/3 of the meat sauce over the mozzarella cheese. Repeat layering twice more, topping with the remaining 1/4 pound of mozzarella cheese.
Bake in preheated oven 90 minutes. Allow to sit 10 to 15 minutes before serving.
