I am fond of the fat pasta in lasagna, a good tomato based sauce, and the cheeses.

You can keep all the dog food for Fido.   :)

Yeah, even lasagna that cost me a little more than $3 (and that was in a menu with soup) at our local supermarket was delicious. I never had bad lasagna or it may be that my standards are low, I don't know, but I definitely like it.

You mean heart attack on a plate. I do. Every time I eat it I feel like I am cheating death.

Lasagna is good measure of the messiness of jobs for friends. 
The more lasagna offered, the ickier the job.   

I sell out for less than I should every time.

Make up a good marinara.  If there's a doubt, add more garlic and basil.

Mix up ricotta, cottage cheese, parm, mozzarella, lots of garlic, some basil, a dash of oregano, 2 or 3 eggs and more garlic.  Mixing in some pancetta or just crumbled Italian sausage is a good idea here if you want it.

Slap a bit of marinara into a pan.  Layer uncooked noodles on top, coat the noodles with marinara then cheese mixture.  Sprinkle more mozzarella and garlic on, add another layer of noodles, sauce, and cheese.  Stack that thing until it hits the top of the pan.

Cover with some oiled aluminum foil to keep the top layer of cheese from getting hard.  Bake for ~45 minutes at 350F/175C then remove foil, continue to cook until the cheese is nice and golden.


And just like cannibal barbecue in the deep south, the secret is in the sauce so put a bit of effort into it.

I love it, my mum used to make the absolute best lasagna, until she turned Vegan.
I hadn't had it in years untill I returned from Switzerland, but this time it was made with Vegetables D:
All I can do now is reminisce! D:

The more real cheese the better, mushrooms and peppers in the meat layer   . Good old artery filler!!

I guess I'll just have to make my own along with home made noodles and maybe have some Italian wedding soup along with it. ;D

I love lasagna. Unfortunately, there are few worse things for my diet. I mean, you have three bites of most lasagnas and that's a meal! And I can't eat just three bites, so I stay away from it (and it is hard to resist).

Yeah, they're one quart containers that are microwave and oven safe so I can use them for heating full servings  ;D

I often cook enough for 2-4 servings so they're also pretty convenient, especially on nights when I don't feel like cooking

Kinda making my own TV dinners LOL

Haven't made it in a while but my specialty is a 4 pepper 5 cheese version.

The "sauce" is diced red, green,yellow, and orange bell peppers and diced tomatoes with whatever seasonings I feel like, oregano, basil, garlic, and onion usually.
Cheese layers are ricotta, provolone, and mozzarella using shredded parmesan and  asiago on the top only.

Have any of you tried vegetarian lasagna?  It it simply like regular lasagna but without any meat in the sauce?  Or did you add veggies like mushrooms?  Tonya, is your lasagna with peppers a vegetarian lasagna?

Here's the Recipe (https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/rachael-ray/mexican-lasagna-suiza-5639299) I followed more or less but with a few of my own variations

I was going to take a picture of the one I made but the guys were pretty hungry and so it all disappeared rather quickly  :icon_blink:
