Lasagna


Ingredients

  • 9 lasagna noodles
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 large jar of Prego Traditional
  • 1 teaspoon garlic salt
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 (15 ounce) container ricotta cheese
  • 3 eggs, beaten
  • 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 pound shredded mozzarella cheese

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. 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.
  3. Cook the ground beef in a large pot over medium heat; drain. Stir in the Prego sauce. Season with garlic salt and pepper; simmer 30 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, mix together the ricotta cheese, eggs, and Parmesan cheese in a bowl.
  5. 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.
  6. Bake in preheated oven 90 minutes. Allow to sit 10 to 15 minutes before serving.
