Also, I think I've mentioned before that I usually try to have at least one meatless meal per week and this fits the bill nicely. Very filling and the kids gobble it up. So if you're having a busy day but don't want to get fast food somewhere give this one a try.
Lazy Day Lasagna
Ingredients:
1 package no-cook lasagna noodles (I use Barilla)
2 eggs
1 (15 oz.) container ricotta cheese
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
2 jars spaghetti sauce (I use Ragu super vegetable primavera)
Instructions:
In a medium sized bowl combine eggs, ricotta, parmesan, and 1 cup of the shredded mozzarella. Spread 1 cup of sauce on bottom of a 9x13in. baking dish.
Layer 1: 4 no-cook lasagna noodles. 1/3 of ricotta mixture, 1 cup mozzarella, and 1 cup spaghetti sauce.
Layer 2: 4 noodles, 1/3 of ricotta mixture, 1 cup spaghetti sauce
Layer 3: 4 noodles, 1/3 of ricotta mixture, 1 cup mozzarella and 1 cup spaghetti sauce.
Layer 4: Last 4 noodles topped with remaining spaghetti sauce and the last cup of mozzarella.
Cover casserole dish by tenting foil over the top. Bake at 375 for 50-60 minutes. Remove foil and bake an additional 5-10 minutes to slightly toast cheese on top. Let rest for 10 minutes and serve!
