Homemade Lasagna Recipe

Prep Time
15 minutes
Cook Time
1 hour 5 minutes
Total Time
1 hour 20 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon garlic, chopped
- 1/2 pound ground beef
- 1 package dry Italian salad dressing mix
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 28 ounce cans crushed tomatoes
- 16 lasagna noodles
- 1 quart ricotta cheese
- 8 ounce package mozzarella cheese, shredded
- Parmesan cheese, shredded
Instructions
- Place the garlic and ground beef in a large skillet and brown on medium heat for about 5 min.
- Add the dry Italian dressing mix and sugar to the ground beef and cook for another 2 to 3 min. or until the meat is fully brown.
- Pour the crushed tomatoes into the pan with the ground beef and stir to combine. Cook the meat sauce for an additional 15 to 20 min. or until bubbling.

- Pour a ladle full of meat sauce into a large casserole dish and stir around to cover the bottom of the dish.
- Lay four lasagna noodles, side-by-side, in the bottom of the dish. Top the noodles with another ladle full of sauce, spreading it around to cover the lasagna.
- Scoop several spoonfuls of ricotta cheese onto the lasagna noodles. Use the back of a spoon to spread cheese around.
- Sprinkle about 1/8 cup shredded mozzarella cheese over the ricotta.
- Repeat this process by layering more lasagna noodles and topping with sauce and cheeses, until the pan is full.
- Sprinkle the top with Parmesan cheese.
- Bake, uncovered, for 25 to 30 min. or until the cheese is bubbling.
