THE BEST LASAGNA RECIPE /making step by step

 This Lasagna Recipe is cheesy, saucy and full of flavor! Make this easy lasagna recipe for a family dinner or to feed a crowd. It freezes well. It reheats well. Leftovers will keep you happy for days.

Ingredients

This 3-cheese lasagna is the ultimate comfort food and the ingredients are refrigerator and pantry staples. See the recipe card below for quantities and full instructions.


  • Ground beef – We used 80/20 beef (20% fat content) for a juicier lasagna.
  • Onion – we use yellow onion, or sweet onion works well
  • Garlic cloves – you can add more if you love garlic
  • Red wine (or beef broth) – This amps up the flavor of your sauce (avoid using cooking wine).
  • Marinara sauce – Use homemade marinara or store-bought.
  • Dried thyme – Italian seasoning, basil, or oregano can be substituted
  • Sugar – balances the acidity of the tomatoes
  • Parsley – flat-leaf or curly parsley works well
  • Lasagna noodles – Cook these al dente; they’ll continue to soften as the lasagna bakes.
  • Cottage cheese – adds great texture and moisture
  • Ricotta cheese – we use low-fat or part-skim ricotta
  • Mozzarella cheese – An Italian cheese blend works, but mozzarella is definitely the classic choice
  • Egg – helps hold the cheese layer together

HOW TO PREPARE LASAGNA

For this recipe, we are essentially making a thick, meaty tomato sauce and layering that with noodles and cheese into a casserole. 

STEPS ARE AS FOLLOWS:

  1. Start by making the sauce with ground beef, bell peppers, onions, and a combo of tomato sauce, tomato paste, and crushed tomatoes. The three kinds of tomatoes gives the sauce great depth of flavor.
  2. Let this simmer while you boil the noodles and get the cheeses ready. We're using ricotta, shredded mozzarella, and parmesan -- like the mix of tomatoes, this 3-cheese blend gives the lasagna great flavor!
  3. From there, it's just an assembly job. A cup of meat sauce, a layer of noodles, more sauce, followed by a layer of cheese. Repeat until you have three layers and have used up all the ingredients.
  4. Bake until bubbly and you're ready to eat!

How to Store and Reheat Leftovers

Half the pleasure of making a lasagna is enjoying the leftovers! The lasagna will keep in the fridge for at least 5 days. Reheat individual slices in the microwave or warm the whole casserole (covered with foil) in the oven at 350°F until bubbly again.
