Number Of Ingredients 20

Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil
3 onions, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 yellow bell pepper, chopped
2 sliced zucchini
8 chopped tomatoes
3 tablespoons tomato paste
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons dried oregano
2 tablespoons dried basil
1 tablespoon dried thyme
salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons butter
1 ½ tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 cups milk
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
⅛ teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
salt and pepper to taste
12 spinach lasagna noodles

Steps:

Heat the oil in a large saucepan. Add the onions and saute for 3 minutes. Add the peppers and saute for 2 minutes. Add the zucchini and saute 3 minutes before adding the tomatoes, tomato paste, garlic and oregano, basil, thyme, salt and pepper. Cover the saucepan and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes (the longer the better as long as the sauce is not sticky.)
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
While the sauce cooks, melt 2 tablespoons butter in a saucepan. Add the flour into the butter, stir vigorously for 2 minutes. Gradually add the milk, stirring until the sauce thickens. Stir in the cheese, reserving as much as you will want to sprinkle on top of the lasagna. Stir the cheese into the flour and butter mixture until it has melted completely. Season with nutmeg, salt, and pepper.
Soak the lasagna noodles in water for 30 seconds.
Cover the bottom of the prepared dish with some of the tomato sauce, followed by a layer of the lasagna sheet, and the cheese sauce. Continue layering these ingredients ending with a layer of cheese sauce. Sprinkle the final layer of cheese sauce with nutmeg, salt, pepper, and the reserved cheese.
Bake the lasagna 40 to 50 minutes, until the top of the lasagna is golden brown.

"KILLER" LASAGNA

This was originally my Mom's recipe and used to be a favorite when we were kids. I always requested it for my Birthday dinner.

Time 1h30m

Yield 12-15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

Ingredients

1/2 lb Italian sausage (I use Spicy Turkey sausage)
1/2 lb ground beef (I use ground Turkey breast)
1 teaspoon minced garlic, about
1 tablespoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon salt (I usually use less than this)
1 (1 lb) can whole tomato (Cut up and use the juice also)
2 (6 ounce) cans tomato paste
2 cups ricotta cheese or 1 (10 ounce) carton ricotta cheese (I use the low fat version)
1 cup cottage cheese (lowfat or non-fat)
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons parsley flakes
2 eggs, beaten
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
lasagna noodle, cooked (Just enough for two layers in a large Glass Pyrex baking pan)
1 lb mozzarella cheese, grated

Steps:

Brown the sausage and ground meat and drain all the fat.
Add all the other ingredients for the meat filling and simmer on the stove, uncovered, for about 1/2 hour.
I usually add a bay leaf or two.
Mix up the cheese filling and set aside in fridge until ready to use.
Put the noodles in salted water and cook until soft when poked with a fork.
When the noodles are done, drain the noodles and rinse off with cold water so they can be handled easily.
Spray the baking pan with a non-stick spray and put a layer of noodles down on the bottom of the pan. It is OK to cut some of the noodles to fit into the pan if they do not fit whole.
Spread half the cheese filling over the noodels, then half of the mozarella cheese on top of that, then half of the meat sauce over the grated mozarella cheese.
REPEAT layers and then top with more mozarella cheese.
Bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes. Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting into it.
Leftovers can be easily stored in the freezer.
