30 Lasagna Recipes For Cold-Weather Comfort

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/1...n_1249660.html

I need meat in my Lasagna. Most Lasagna's lack meat.

[Hoover]

1 lb ground beef.
1/2 lb of Graziano Italian Sausage
1 container of mushrooms.
1 onion
1 container of ricotta
Marinara (I make my own, I don't skimp.)
1 small jar of alfredo sauce
Sliced provolone, fresh grated asiago
I use the Barilla Oven Ready Lasagna noodles.

Step one: Cook meat with half the onion, and to marinara
Step two: saute half onion and mushrooms, then add to alfredo.

Assemble:

Meat sauce on the bottom of the pan, I go pretty heavy.
Noodle
Alfredo mushroom layer
Noodle
Ricotta (I mix in an beaten egg, some asiago, and basil and oregano.
Noodle
Heavy sauce layer
Cap it off with provolone layer.

I bake it in a deep stoneware dish.

Shitty pic, but looks like this.

But did they use cottage cheese?

I think I will try that. Alfredo sauce in lasagne sounds interesting.

The meat from my mom's meatball recipe and her homemade sauce was what made her lasagna hers. She made the pasta from scratch I used to help hold the pasta when it come out of the pasta roller thing. I was so spoiled as a kid and didn't realize till I got older.

I like lasagna. But it's a pain in the ass to make so I rarely eat it.

That's not emo you're sensing . . .

He's nervous, . . . but on the surface he looks calm and ready.

Oh wait. Sorry. . . That wasn't mom's lasagna

JFC cottage cheese and ricotra are some poverty level lasagna

[Buzz]

I'm going to make a more healthy version in the next couple of days. Whole wheat noodles, reduced fat everything else, and lasagna is not hard to make. I'm cutting the recipe in half, should make for 6 servings. I need to pick up some JJ bread.

As someone else mentioned, it was probably more of an availability issue but I guess I don't know that for certain.

I still like to occasionally mix some cottage cheese into a bowl of pasta and marinara. Good stuff.

Food snob alert

My mom makes the best lasagna...better than any Italian restaurant I've had. She uses V's sauce. Love that stuff.

Just thought I'd put it out there. I don't have a recipe for it, I'd probably **** it up anyway.

Carry on.
