What’s not to love about cheesy, gooey, lasagna?  This dish has comfort written all over it!  It’s kind of time consuming, so if you’re making one, may as well make two and freeze one for later.  This recipe calls for Good Life Magic Meat Sauce, so make sure you have the recipe before you start!  We have lasagna every year on Christmas Eve, so it always brings happy memories.

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Butter a large baking dish and set aside.

  5. Drain noodles and rinse with cool water until cool enough to handle.
  6. Spoon a ladle or two of meat sauce into buttered baking dish and spread evenly.  Lay lasagna noodles in a single layer, completely covering sauce.
  7. Spread one-third of the ricotta mixture over noodles.  Ladle sauce over ricotta, covering completely.  Sprinkle grated mozerella over sauce in an even layer.  Repeat layers until all ingredients have been used, finishing with mozerella on top.  Sprinkle the remaining parmesan on top.
