I never cook the noodles for lasagna any more. I often substitute firm tofu for the ricotta, too. If I have fresh spinach I stir it in as is, but frozen works fine too. Ingredients:
8 slices bacon |
2 tablespoons bacon drippings |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 medium onion, chopped |
3 garlic cloves, minced |
28 ounces crushed tomatoes |
6 ounces tomato paste |
1/4 cup dry red wine |
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar |
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes |
10 ounces spinach |
15 ounces ricotta cheese |
1 egg |
8 -12 lasagna noodles |
parmesan cheese, shredded |
parsley, minced |
Directions:
1. Cook and crumble bacon. 2. In drippings and oil, saute onion and garlic. 3. Add next 8 ingredients, and heat to combine flavors and cook spinach. 4. In bowl, combine ricotta, Swiss and egg. 5. Spread 1 c sauce in bottom of baking dish. 6. Layer 1/2 of the noodles, 1/2 cheese mix and 1/2 remaining sauce. 7. Repeat layers. 8. Bake at 350 for 40 minutes. 9. Top with Parmesan and parsley. 10. Cool 10 minutes before serving. |
