Lasagna for Two Recipe {Small Batch Lasagna}

[@jjones4314]

For those that don't care for ricotta cheese, I use cottage cheese in place of ricotta. Works great!

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Great idea!

[@thelibraryismyhappyplace1618]

Or you can do it the Italian way and use bechamel

[@HensOnly]

It's great with cottage cheese!

[@pamkammann1176]

I always use cottage cheese.. it’s great!

[@User48_x3]

I personally don't care for the taste of ricotta and Cottage cheese is more creamy so it might be a texture thing with me..I can't wait to have this small version. It's time for lasagna again!

[@toni2606]

Small batch recipes are exactly what I need and want! I'm not surprised that so many others agree. Can't wait for more recipes. Happily subscribed.✅🙂

i am so glad to find your channel. i have cooked for a large family for 50 years. now it's just hubby & me and i have found it's hard to change. i am subscribing because i like the simplicity of your meals, the fact that you take the time to write the whole recipe & ingredients in the description and it's not rushed or too slow.. it is a big help for people who aren't interested in going to someones blog for a recipe. so thank you for this and for saving me the waste of food i was using. can't wait to try all your recipes.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Glad you found my channel and enjoy the recipes. Thanks for following along.

[@luhoward9882]

I recently found u n boy am I glad I did. THANK YOU for small batch cooking

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

I am so glad you found me too!

[@maha333g5]

Loving the small batch!!!

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

I am so glad!! thanks for following along.

[@barbaralong4362]

I made this tonight, it was DELICIOUS! Thank you so much! I'm trying to get my health in line so lasagna every now and then is fine, but having 12+ pieces of it is not the best for me. This is perfect to satisfy my craving and I won't have an entire pan of pasta haunting me for the next week.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

So glad you loved it!

[@cateq7344]

I made it last evening and it was the best lasagna I have ever made. My husband says it is a keeper! Thank you Leigh Anne!

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

So glad it was a hit at your house!

[@theaerogardenhomestead]

You don't have to parboil the regular pasta, just add more water to compensate for the cooking process. Adam Ragusea has a video on this and I've tried it too. Works great, saves time, and makes clean up a little easier. Definitely check it out since the regular noodles are cheaper. I've been making freezer meals out of the "extras" that a regular recipe would make. Then I can have an easy night with a great meal still. Handy during canning season.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Thanks for the tip

[@themandigirl]

I'm really enjoying all of your Small Batch Cooking recipes since my Hubby & I are now empty nesters....well, except for the brownies! My husband said they were delicious and he wished it had made more!! :) Keep 'em coming!!

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Love it!! Next time you can double the brownie recipe :)

[@borgsimpson935]

Awesome tutorial.. Been looking for a Site, cooking for 2.. Im subscribing... Looking forward to this dish

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Welcome and enjoy!

[@YouMatterAndYouAreLoved]

Gosh! That looks so good. I know it was delicious! I'm ordering a 9x5 Pyrex pan and making Leigh Annes recipe, soon! So glad I found someone who shares recipes for 1 to 2 people. I know I will love this! Thumbs up. Beth (UPDATE 4/20/24. Tried this recipe, went exactly by the directions (we used 4 layers of lasagna noodles), and it turned out incredible)!!

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

So glad you found me too! Enjoy!

[@jepolch]

I made it today. I used six layers of Barilla oven ready noodles and had half the meat sauce leftover. The other ingredients were the right amount. Great recipe! Thanks!

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@theresewillis5584]

Thank you...another great recipe!

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Glad you loved it!

[@pamelaklemp5615]

That's a perfect size pan for making it. I agree about leftovers. Some amounts of leftovers are fine but not enough leftovers for re-feeding an Army Unit. I saved this video to my Private Playlist for referencing again and again. I'm sure I'll be making this recipe often. Thanks.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@ivettekittyfamily]

Oh my God I was thinking lasagna not too long ago. I’m definitely gonna make this for me and my husband. Thank you so much. I always make too much. That’s why I stop making it now that I saw for two I have the pan. I’m gonna make it thanks sweetie.❤😊🎉

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Hope you and your husband enjoy it!

[@cheryl9261]

Love your recipes and they’re just perfect for two sometimes three. Thank you

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

So glad you enjoy them!

[@paulasansom6088]

I made this the night before last and it was delish. 3 meals for me. I had everything I needed except ricotta. My local grocery doesn't carry ricotta but I used cottage cheese, very well drained. Thanks for all the wonderful recipes. I live alone and these are very helpful.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

So glad you enjoyed it!

[@MeghanLCSW]

This is perfect!!

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Enjoy!

[@LP-zr1ep]

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

So glad you found me and thanks for subscribing!

[@anitagelles332]

Beautiful kitchen.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Thank you so much!

[@notmebutyou8350]

It sure is!!

[@Chocolate2357]

Is your cookbook sold on Amazon? I love your small recipes.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Mh slow cooker cookbook is sold on Amazon but the only small batch cookbook I have is my Thanksgiving for Two ebook which is linked in the description above.

[@LoveMusic-pd5iz]

Leigh Ann, Thank you so much for all your small batch recipes. I don't want to stop cooking - but it's just me now. As soon as I figure out where to put it in my very small kitchen, I'm getting a toaster over. Are there things to look for besides size when buy one? I've never owned a toaster over.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

I don't have a toaster oven, I'd just make sure it fits on your counter and that it gets hot enough to bake in.

[@karimahalim6260]

Looks so yummy.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

It's delish! Enjoy!

[@carolelang1428]

Thankful for this site hard to cook for one

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

So glad you find it helpful!

[@gladiator_games]

Thank you for this recipe this what iam looking for !!!😊😂😊

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Hope you enjoy

[@bxrokk]

This was genius!!!

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

It's delicious too!

[@catpeters7864]

You actually don't even have to boil regular noodles, if you have enough sauce. I make sure I have it under noodles and on top. Works perfectly.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Good to know!

[@rrh1980]

Had this on Sunday and it turned out really well. Your time and temp is different than what comes on the box, but IDK i guess maybe they are thinking a full pan and we are thinking a loaf pan. But I did it your way and like I said it turned out well. Thumbs up.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

I am so glad you enjoyed it!

[@sheteg1]

A couple of suggestions. U need to make a small batch of bolognese that takes 3 hours. Also u need a small batch of bechemel, ricotta is not in lasagna. . The no cook noodles still need a 3 minute blanch. Try to use provolone. Use Mutti tomatoes if u can find them.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Thanks for the suggestions.

[@lorraineberkos3400]

Looks delish !!!!

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

It's so yummy!

[@treacherouslettuce7824]

Do you happen to have any advice on how the instructions would change if i wanted to assemble the night before, store it in the fridge, and then bake the next day? Or, could this be assembled and frozen to be baked later?

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

bake time may just be a bit longer if you bake it straight out of the fridge.

[@jepolch]

This looks great, but I have one question. Is the Sodium: 1625mg for one serving or for the whole lasagna? Thanks!

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

whole lasagna

[@thebestcook3180]

Thank you for all the wonderful recipes

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Glad you like them!

[@Video1d]

How much time should I add if baking from frozen?

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Probably 5-10 minutes

[@evawilson1308]

I would have to use more sugar, because I can have a lot of tomatoes 🍅 because I break out in hives if I have too much

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Hope you enjoy the recipe!

[@mm-bq6ek]

Appreciate

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Enjoy!

[@arodude2591]

Thanks for the idea, smaller batches for the win. I have no willpower to hold onto a large pan of lasagna lol
