missy's lazy lasagna

I made this recipe the other night, when my kids were wanting something quick and easy. We were craving lasagna, but I did not want to make my homemade version, as I needed something much quicker. So I threw this together; it was ready in less than 45 minutes. Heres another shortcut. We have a family of 7 so I buy ground beef/turkey by the larger packages. I cook up all my meat and freeze in pound size bags. That way I do not have to cook the meat during the week. It is such a time saver. And if you like onion in your meat, you can add this while you are cooking so that it ready to go.

prep time 5 Min
cook time 30 Min
method Bake
yield 6-8 serving(s)

Ingredients

  • 1 jar spaghetti sauce
  • 3 cups mozzarella cheese, low-fat, shredded ( i like the larger shreds)
  • 1 box lasagna noodles
  • 1- 1/2 pounds ground turkey or beef
  • 2 tablespoons chopped onions

How To Make missy's lazy lasagna

  • Step 1
    Brown the ground turkey and onion, and drain. Then you will cook the noodles accordin to the package. However, before you put them in the pot; break them up. You will want to break them in different shapes, just larger than bite size. Then cook.
  • Step 2
    Then I take the sauce and meat and put them in the microwave bowl for a couple of minutes. Once the sauce is heated, you will somewhat layer the noodles like normal lasagna, then layer sauce/meat and then layer cheese. You will repeat this a total of three times. Then top with a nice layer of cheese. You can add a little parsley (my kids do not like so I did not add it this time). Back at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes.
