INGREDIENTS
1 Pound ground sirloin beef 2 Cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese (2 cups = 8 oz) 1 Cup shredded Parmesan cheese 1 container (15 oz ea) ricotta cheese 2 eggs 2 can (15 oz ea) Hunt's® Family Favorites Seasoned Tomato Sauce for Lasagna 3 *serving PAM® Original No-Stick Cooking Spray 12 noodle dry lasagna noodles, uncooked 1/4 Teaspoon ground black pepper 1 1/2 Cup hot waterPREPARATION:
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Spray 13x9-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Brown meat in large skillet over medium-high heat; drain. Stir in tomato sauce and water; remove from heat. Set aside. Beat eggs lightly in medium bowl with wire whisk. Add ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper; mix well. Set aside.
- Place 4 of the noodles in prepared dish, overlapping or breaking noodles as needed to fit in dish. Cover with 1/3 of the meat mixture, 1/2 of the cheese mixture and 4 of the noodles. Repeat layers, beginning with the meat mixture and ending with the noodles. Top with the remaining meat mixture. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese; cover.
- Bake 35 minutes. Remove cover; bake an additional 10 minutes, or until pasta mixture is hot and bubbly and cheese is melted. Let stand 10 minutes before cutting into 8 pieces to serve.
Great Substitute: Prepare as directed, substituting a package (20 ounces) of Butterball® Italian Turkey Sausage, casings removed, for the ground beef. Cooking Know-How: Spray one side of aluminum foil with cooking spray before placing, sprayed-side down, over baking dish to cover. This will help to prevent the cheese from sticking to the foil.
