LAZY MAN'S (OR LAZY MOM'S LASAGNA)

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

8-ounces provolone, sliced
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese (about 2 ounces)
1 pound lean ground beef
1/2 cup minced onion, optional
1 garlic clove, minced, optional
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Salt and pepper, to taste
12 ounces frozen (not thawed) cheese ravioli
1 (14-ounce jar) spaghetti sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Brown the beef with the optional onion, optional garlic, herbs, and salt and pepper in a large, ovenproof skillet (I use one that's made of castiron). When the meat is thoroughly cooked -- it will take 8 to 10 minutes -- drain off any fat and take everything out of the pan. Now put the still-frozen ravioli into the pan, breaking them up if they are clumped. Spread the ground beef mixture evenly over the ravioli, and ladle the spaghetti sauce evenly over the ground beef mixture. Over medium heat, without stirring, cook until the ravioli is heated through and beginning to brown on the bottom -- about 10 minutes.
  • Take the skillet off the heat, lay the provolone slices over the ground beef mixture, and sprinkle the whole thing with the Parmesan. Bake for 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted. Serve hot.

WEEKNIGHT LAZY LASAGNA



Weeknight Lazy Lasagna image

On hectic nights, no one has time to stack several layers of lasagna. My version combines a few steps to cut down on prep, but keeps all the cheesy, saucy, noodle-y goodness that makes lasagna an all-time favorite. -Nancy Foust, Stoneboro, Pennsylvania

Time 4h5m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 28

1 pound dry lasagna pasta sheets
6 cups Bolognese sauce, recipe follows
3 cups Bechamel sauce, recipe follows
1 pound freshly grated mozzarella
Freshly grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, for sprinkling
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 large carrot, finely chopped
1 onion, finely chopped
1 large celery stalk, finely chopped
2 dried chili peppers, crushed
Sprig fresh rosemary
1/2 pound ground beef
1/2 pound ground pork
1 cup white wine
3 cups tomato sauce or La Salsa di 5 Minuti, recipe follows
3 basil leaves, torn
Salt
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
Dried chili peppers, crushed
1 (28-ounce) can peeled plum tomatoes, pureed
Salt
3 fresh basil leaves, torn
5 tablespoons butter
5 tablespoons flour
4 1/2 cups milk

Steps:

  • To assemble:
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Cover the bottom of a deep baking dish with a layer of Bolognese sauce. Lay out the uncooked pasta sheets over the sauce until they cover the baking dish entirely. Cover the pasta with another generous layer of Bolognese sauce. The liquid from the sauce will cook the dried pasta so be sure to add enough sauce. Drizzle the bechamel sauce and sprinkle the mozzarella on top, until both are distributed evenly. Add another layer of dried pasta, laying the sheets in the opposite direction. Repeat the process of adding sauces, mozzarella, and pasta for another 2 to 3 layers or until two-thirds of the baking dish's depth is filled. Top off the last layer of sauces and mozzarella with a generous sprinkle of the Parmigiano cheese.
  • Place the pan in oven for approximately 40 minutes and let rest for 20 minutes before serving.
  • In a hot saucepan, melt the unsalted butter with the olive oil, and add the carrots, onion, celery, and chili pepper. Cook the ingredients over medium heat, until they are soft. Add a sprig of rosemary. Add the ground beef and pork, and cook until golden brown. Remove the rosemary sprig, and add the white wine. Let reduce. Add the tomato sauce or La Salsa di 5 Minuti, and let simmer on low heat for 1 hour. Before serving, add basil leaves and salt to season. Serve immediately.
  • Salsa di 5 Minuti:
  • Heat olive oil in a saucepan and add onion, garlic, and chili peppers. Gently fry ingredients together. Add pureed plum tomatoes to saucepan. Simmer on low to medium heat for 10 minutes.
  • Season with salt to taste. Add basil leaves at the very end.
  • Bechamel:
  • In a saucepan, heat up the milk, and bring to a gentle simmer. In another saucepan, melt the butter and immediately add the flour.
  • Lower the heat, and mix until the butter has absorbed all the flour and is the consistency of thick dough. Make sure the butter-flour mixture does not burn or brown.
  • Remove the saucepan from the heat, and whisk in a couple of ladles of heated milk into the butter-flour mixture. Whisk until the flour has absorbed all of the milk. Put the saucepan back on the burner over medium heat, and whisk in the remainder of the milk.
  • Continue whisking until the sauce thickens and becomes a creamy velvety consistency.

LAZY MANS LASAGNE



Lazy Mans Lasagne image

This is truly the lasagne for the lazy man/woman. Which is why it would be a great recipe to start your teenager on!(Ohhhh! Cut! Just kidding teens. We know you are not ALL lazy.) I am so lazy, I do not even have a recipe for this, which is why you wont see many measurements. You could make this from almost all leftovers and bits of this and that. You could use any leftover meats or bits of cheeses you need to get rid of. For the link to the blog site this came from go to: https://lapetitekitchen.wordpress.com/2015/03/05/lazy-mans-lasagne/

Categories     Beef

Number Of Ingredients 7

- pasta such as penne or egg noodles
- spaghetti sauce, homemade or jarred
- (optional) a half jar of alredo sauce
- hamburger or ground turkey/chicken or sausage (of leftovers)
- mozarella cheese, grated
1 pint(s) cottage cheese
- parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Now remember, you are making 'lazy lasagne' so dont work too hard at this. Use leftovers where possible. Heat up your sauce and mix in the meat, either leftover bits or cook up some. True lazy-ists will cook the meat up in the microwave and then drain it and break it up. (I use stoneware baker and chop with mix n chopper). Then mix with the sauce. Maybe microwave another minute together. But you dont have to, if its too much effort. We need to focus on lazy here.
  • Cook up your pasta of choice until just done. Get out a baking pan, like a Pyrex glass 9 x 13 or a stoneware or La Creuset baking pan. (Unless you are broiling, then dont use stoneware.) Grate your cheeses. (Or better still, get someone else to grate them for you!)
  • Lets make it even easier and mix the noodles and the meat sauce together. Ahhh! Lets layer them in. Pasta/meat/sauce-the 3 cheeses-a drizzle of alfedo sauce-pasta/meat/sauce again and so it goes. Just try to end with mozzarella cheese on top.
  • Now you can bake this until warm. It wont take long, because it is already pretty much warm. Or you can put it under the broiler for a few minutes. (But dont walk away, like I did, and let it get too brown). Or microwave it and then broil it for a nice brown topping. Whatever is the laziest way for you! Serve up, maybe with a bag of ready to go-no effort salad. (I am feeling so lazy now, I wont even go back and spell check this!)
