Frying Pan Lasagna image

I think this is one of the first things I ever cooked! I make this in my electric frying pan, but you can do it stovetop if you have a big enough covered frying pan. Since it's made with egg noodles, it's not a traditional style lasagna, but it is much easier to throw together. Just brown the beef and layer. Don't mind all the steps - you are just layering.

Time 45m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb lean ground beef
1 tablespoon butter
1 ounce spaghetti sauce mix (whatever size they come in)
1 lb cream-style cottage cheese (full-fat is best)
3 cups broad egg noodles, uncooked
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon basil
1 small bay leaf, crushed
28 ounces tomatoes
5 1/2 ounces tomato paste (small can)
1 cup water
12 ounces mozzarella cheese, cut in slices (I use a mozarella ball)

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a heavy frying pan (or electric skillet). Brown the ground beef, breaking it up with a fork and spreading over the pan.
  • Sprinkle with half the dry spaghetti sauce mix.
  • Spoon on the cottage cheese.
  • Top with the noodles.
  • Sprinkle with remaining sauce mix, salt, oregano, basil & bay leaf.
  • Combine the tomatoes, paste and water & pour over.
  • Bring to a boil, lower heat, cover and simmer until noodles are tender - about 40 minutes. You may need to add a bit more water as needed during cooking (this seems to happen more when you make it stovetop).
  • Top with strips of mozarella cheese, let soften & serve.
