Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 1/2 cups whole tomatoes
  • 16 ounces tomato sauce
  • 2 tablespoons instant minced onion
  • 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons oregano leaves
  • 1/4 teaspoon rosemary leaves
  • 1/4 teaspoon basil leaves
  • 1/2 teaspoon msg
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 3 ounces can sliced mushrooms
  • 1/2 pound lasagne noodles
  • 1 pound ricotta cheese
  • 1/2 pound mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese

How To Make lasagne

  • Step 1
    Saute ground beef in hot oil until meat loses its pink color. Add tomatoes, tomato sauce, seasonings, and mushrooms. Mix well; cook slowly about 2 hours or until sauce is thickened.
  • Step 2
    Cook noodles following directions on package; drain, rinse in cold water and separate.
  • Step 3
    In a buttered 3 quart baking dish, make two layers of the noodles, meat sauce, ricotta, slices of the mozzarella cheese and parmesan cheese, in this order, using about half of each for each layer.
  • Step 4
    Bake in 350 degree oven for 30 minutes or until bubbly.
  • Step 5
    Note: Pepperoni or Italian sausage may be added to meat sauce if desired. You may double the recipe for sauce; use half in making the lasagne, as above, and serve the remainder, cooked down quite thick, in a sauceboat along with the lasagne.
