Not to brag but I make what has been called by many as a great lasagna. Mainly because I use the best ingriedents and make my own sauce (no Ragu for me).
The recipe is fairly complicated so I will spare SD the bother.
Here is an easy version:
Easy Lasagna
* 8 ounces lasagna noodles (or more of everything depending on number of people you are feeding).
* 1 pound lean ground beef
* 1/2 cup chopped onion
* 8 ounces mushrooms, optional
* 1 jar (about 16 ounces) spaghetti sauce, your favorite
* 1 teaspoon garlic powder
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* 1 teaspoon dried leaf oregano, crumbled
* 1/2 teaspoon dried leaf basil, crumbled
* 1 1/2 cups ricotta cheese
* 2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
* 3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Cook lasagna noodles according to package directions; drain and set aside. In a large skillet, brown beef, onion, and mushrooms; drain well. Stir in spaghetti sauce, garlic powder, salt, oregano, and basil. In a 2-quart buttered baking dish
(about 11x7x2-inches), layer 1/3 of the lasagna noodles, 1/3 of the sauce and 1/3 of the ricotta cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, and Parmesan cheeses. Repeat layers twice. Bake lasagna at 350° for 30 minutes, or until thoroughly heated and bubbly. Let stand for 8 to 10 minutes before cutting and serving. Serves 6 to 8.
Good luck, wil
