How To Make The Best Homemade Lasagna | You'll Never Buy Frozen Lasagna Again After Trying This!

lasagna noodles
• Should you always boil...
👇🏽LASAGNA RECIPE👇🏽
• 12oz "Oven Ready" Lasagna Noodles (NO BOIL lasagna noodles)
• 24 oz Mozzarella Cheese (use more or less as desired)
MEAT SAUCE
• 2.5 lbs ground beef
• 48 oz marinara sauce PLUS 1 cup of water (use a high quality sauce)
• 1/2 diced white onion
• 5 minced garlic cloves
• 1 Tbsp Italian Seasoning
• 1/2 Tbsp Beef Bouillon Powder
• 1 Tsp dried Basil
• 3/4 Tsp Cayenne Red Pepper
• 1/4 Tsp ground black pepper
• Salt (to taste)
• Fresh Parsley
• Sugar (This is not a rule! Please taste your sauce and use your best judgement if your sauce is very acidic then add sugar as needed)
CHEESE SAUCE (make to your taste)
• 15 oz whole milk Ricotta Cheese
• Grated Parmesan cheese
• Garlic powder
• Cajun seasoning (optional)
• Salt
• Fresh Parsley
• 1 egg (add last)
NOTE: I used a 13 x 9 1/2 inch casserole dish and baked for 1 hour, broiled for 3 minutes.
When making the meat sauce please taste as you go! If you prefer NOT to use Marinara Sauce then you may use any pasta sauce (e.g. garlic and herb, tomato and basil, tomato basil garlic ) and taste as you go..... meaning gradually add seasonings to your sauce and make any adjustments as desired.
If you prefer you may brown your meat and onions, add pasta sauce, THEN gradually add seasonings! The outcome of your lasagna is based on how well your meat sauce tastes. It's important that you use a high quality sauce and season to YOUR taste for BEST results! Enjoy 😊

In addition to ricotta, I also buy slices of provolone and add them first to each noodle layer. The sliced provolone also adds more gooeyness to the lasagna.

I made this tonight for dinner for my fiancé, it came out looking and tasting so good. This is going into our delicious food rotation. Thank you for the wonderful recipe.

[@ahmedc5093]

That baking oil trick on the foil is really helpful, for a lot of other things. Thank you.

[@stephaniedrayton1671]

I've been making Lasagna for about 35 years now, ( I'm 53) and You changed the game with this one...lol...I never knew i didn't have to boil the noodles first.....That is so time consuming.... My son love's Lasagna so, this way, i can make it more often...Thank you!!! from both of us..lol...❤

[@jazcor]

Same here about not knowing you don’t have to boil the noodles first. I can’t wait to try cooking it this way for my husband and kids.

I never tried making lasagna because I assumed it was too hard to make. You made it look easy so I’m going to try it. Thank you so much for the recipe and taking the time to show us how to make it. I love the clear directions you provide and your calming voice. Wow, that looks good! 👍

[@TheSimpleWaywithDelila]

Aww your so welcome! I didn't mention much about the sauce I used, but just a tip, use a high quality marinara sauce for best results. I used a brand called Rao's Homemade Marinara Sauce, I should've mentioned that in the video.

[@LadyLeeBird]

I've never tried Raos sauce, but have seen it in stores. It looks good, but pricey. I discovered Mids sauce years ago in a grocery store, and it's pricey as well ($5 per jar on average, but I buy when on sale) but WELL WORTH IT! I use the Mids meat sauce in my lasagna every time, and I'll use a cheaper brand like Aldis meat sauce cuz one jar will not do a whole pan. I also have a secret ingredient that takes my lasagna to the next level.. cream cheese instead of ricotta. I used to be very intimidated by lasagna too, but it's a very simple and easy meal that goes a long way. Leftovers are even better! Freeze it if you have a small family, and you've got dinner ready on nights you don't want to cook! P.S. this lasagna looks good, I'll have to pick up some raos sauce up on my next trip and see how it compares to my Mids! 👍

[@Breanna_monique]

Thank you SO MUCH for this recipe. I made my very first lasagna tonight following all of your steps and it turned out amazing. And you were not lying about watching the lasagna on broil. I thought I set a timer for 10 minutes but it didn't go off. I caught it just in time. The cheese on top wasn't gooey like yours but it had just enough browning where it gave it a great crunch and taste still. My son and I loved it!

I made your lasagna last night and it was wonderful! Thank you for putting that recipe up. If you're interested a little trick I learned was after you've added the tomatoes to your sauce and you're letting it simmer add a good half cup of Parmesan cheese it will put your sauce over the top

I love that idea!! Sometimes I'll do that when making spaghetti but never thought to do it with lasagna. I'll definitely try that next time!

This lasagna recipe looks scrumptious and easy to make! I love how it's made with ground beef instead of mixing it with Italian sausage (not a fan of the sausage, but to each's own) and I love that most of the products came from HEB which is my FAVORITE grocery store to shop. This recipe gets two thumbs up!

[@TheSimpleWaywithDelila]

Thank you!! Believe it or not I normally cook it with Italian sausage but I forgot to get it from HEB lol! It still came out good though ☺️

@@TheSimpleWaywithDelila meat is meat🤷🏾‍♂️ but certain meat is a no go

[@formatique_arschloch]

What is Italian sausage? Some American thing?

[@JJ-ck2mt]

@@formatique_arschloch Italian sausage is simply a sausage made with pork (sweet sausage). Traditionally, Italian dishes such as this are with combined meats, veal, pork, beef, even lamb. Sausages are usually the most common way to add ground pork into dishes. I usually just squeeze it out of the casing. Cucina italiano.

[@formatique_arschloch]

@@JJ-ck2mt Thanks, but in Italy there is no such thing as "Italian sausage". There's a lot of different types of sausages in Italy. Region by region, even town by town. "Italian sausage" exists only in the U.S.? Like Olive Garden is supposed to be an Italian restaurant? Just wondering.
