This is my mother-in-law's lasagna recipe, and it has a really great flavor. This is a really good recipe that doesn't use some of the more expensive kinds of cheeses that many lasagna recipes call for. (The one change I've made is to use small pasta shells instead of the lasagna noodles, just because I think it's a bit quicker - but it tastes great either way). I'm going to try making several batches of lasagna at once and freezing it for later. Ingredients:
1 lb small shell pasta, cooked, drained, and rinsed in cold water |
1 lb ground beef |
1 quart pasta sauce |
1 lb cottage cheese |
1/2 lb mozzarella cheese, grated |
parmesan cheese |
salt |
pepper |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cook ground beef until browned. Drain. Season with salt and pepper. Add pasta sauce. (I usually do this while the pasta is cooking.) Put a layer of pasta in a 9x9 pan. Top with 1/2 of the cottage cheese, 1/2 of the mozzarella cheese, and 1/2 the meat sauce. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Repeat layers. Cook at 375° for 30 minutes. |
