How To Make lasagna my way
-
Step 1Use a large lasagna pan or 2 9x13 baking dishes. I have a HUGE lasagna pan, so I use it. Next time I make lasagna, I'm going to weight it!
-
Step 2Make spaghetti sauce (with or without the veggies) as per my page. https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/main-course/italian/spaghetti-sauce-sorta-scratch.html?p=1 Mix the cheeses and eggs, reserving 1 cup of Parmesan for the top.
-
Step 3Begin building the lasagna starting with the sauce, noodles, cheese mixture, noodles, ultimately ending with cheese mixture. Sprinkle remaining Parmesan cheese on top.
-
Step 4Cover with foil and bake at 350. For a deep lasagna pan, 1 1/2-2 hours, for 2 9x13 pans, 1 hour. Remove the foil and let the cheese brown for the last 10 minutes. Let the lasagna rest for about 20 minutes before serving.
-
Step 5This freezes well before or after baking. I normally bake first, then make individual containers for the freezer. You can make this in smaller disposable baking pans for shut-ins or to freeze and bake at a later time. If you use the disposable containers, place them on a cookie sheet when you bake them.
