1 (15 ounce) container ricotta cheese
1 lb frozen broccoli florets (thawed, patted dry and chopped)
2 1/4 cups grated mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • spoon layer of sauce on bottom of 9 x 13 pan, top with noodles, more sauce, cover with the cheese broccoli mixture. Repeat until it is all gone. Each layer put the noodles in a different direction it makes it easier to cut when you serve! When top layer of noodles is down, sprinkle with remaining mozzarella and parmesan.

  • I double the recipe for a bigger group and use one of those "big lasagna" tins from the grocery store. bake a larger sized lasagna about 15 minutes more.
