Last week I set out to make my semi-famous Lasagna dish for a co-worker who lost her sister to cancer. I wanted to deliver her some comfort food to makes things just a bit easier. Here is my recipe:
Ingredients:
- 3 cans Hunts tomato sauce
- 1 box lasagna
- 1 tub of ricotta cheese
- 2 cups of mozzarella cheese
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 lb italian sausage
- 1 lb hamburger
- salt and pepper
For a 13x9 pan:
-Boil a box a lasagna until it is "just about" all the way cooked. You want it to still be a bit hard, but not too much.
-In the pot on the stove, simmer 3 cans of Hunts tomato sauce with 2 cloves of minced garlic.
-Brown 1 lb of italian sausage and 1 lb of hamburger. Drain and then combine with tomato sauce.
-In the pan, cover bottom with the sauce mixture. Layer with 3-4 rows of lasagna noodles. Cover noodles with ricotta cheese. Put sauce on top of the cheese and then top with mozzarella cheese.
-Continue to layer up until you reach the last inch of pan. Cover finals noodles with sauce and then pile on the mozzarella! The more cheese, the better :) I also sprinkle salt and pepper over the top.
-Cook lasagna at 350 for about 45-60 minutes. Cheese will start to brown on top. Because everything is already cooked, the cook time is just about heating the lasagna all the way through. Enjoy!
