Quick and Easy Lasagna

Well I have been so busy that I have not written in my blog in several weeks.  Things are slowing down so we can get ready for the Holiday rush.  I will be posting some of my favorite holiday recipes so I hope you will keep checking and see of the recipes that I love.

A couple of months ago I served Lasagna to the Pilot Club using leftover spaghetti sauce from a fundraiser we had.  After the meeting several requested the recipe.  My husband hates cottage cheese or ricotta cheese.  So I changed the recipe to fit our taste.  I hope you will enjoy using this easy recipe.

Quick and Easy Lasagna

16 oz. Lasagna noodles

1 lb. hamburger meat(can use 1/2 sausage and 1/2 beef)
1 1/2 minced garlic

1/2 cup chopped onion
1 jar of spaghetti(or you can use 2 cups of your homemade spaghetti sauce)
1/2 tsp salt

Black pepper to taste
2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese

2 cups Mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese

2 beaten large eggs

Cook Lasagna according to pkg directions. Or you can use uncooked noodles this makes it quicker. In a large pot saute meat, garlic and onions. Drain off fat. Add spaghetti sauce, salt and pepper. Bring meat sauce to a boil, reduce heat and simmer 15 minutes. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cheeses with the beaten eggs. Mix until smooth. To build lasagna layer 4 strips of noodles lengthwise in the bottom of a greased 9 X 13 pan. Spread on 1/3 meat sauce and then 1/3 cheese mixture. Repeat layering process twice. Bake lasagna, covered in a preheated 350 degree oven for 30 minutes(if uncooked noodles cook an extra 15 minutes--45 minutes total). Remove cover and bake for another 10 minutes. Let stand at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
