WEIGHT WATCHERS CLASSIC LASAGNA

Steps:

• Heat oil in large heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add onion, carrot, cleery and garlic; cook, stirring frequently until vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes.
• Increase heat to medium-high and add beef; cook until browned, breaking up meat with a spoon as it cooks, about 5 minutes.
• Add wine; cook, stirring once, until most of the liquid has evaporated, 2-3 minutes.
• Stir in tomatoes and paste, oregano, salt, black and red pepper; increase heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered, until sauce thickens, about 20 minutes; stir in basil.
• Preheat oven to 375.
• Make the filling by putting into a medium bowl ricotta, egg, Parmesan cheese and parsley.
• In a 13x9 inch baking dish spread 2 cups meat sauce on the bottom of the pan. Layer 4 noodles on top, overlapping to fit if needed.
• Spoon about 2 1/4 cups meat sauce over noodles; top with 1/2 cup filling mixture and 1/2 cup mozzarella. Repeat, layering with remaining noodles, sauce, filling and mozzarella, reserving 1/2 cup mozzarella.
• Cover lasagna with foil and bake 45 minutes. Remove foil, sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella and bake until cheese melts and lightly browns, about 5 minutes; remove from oven and let rest 15 minutes; slice into 12 pieces.
• If desired, you can make this recipe a day ahead and stop short of baking. Let the dish cool to room temperature and cover and refrigerate until ready to bake. Allow 15 minutes more baking time to cook through.

HEARTY VEGETABLE LASAGNA (WEIGHT WATCHERS)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400. Spray 8 inch square baking dish and 2 baking sheets with nonstick spray. I skipped this step and put my sauce in the bottom and didn't need anything to coat the bottom.
• Place eggplant and zucchini on prepared baking sheets, overlapping slices if necessary.
• Spray with cooking spray and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. I skipped the non-stick cooking spray and used olive oil. Bake until vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add tomatoes with their juice, mushrooms, bell pepper, basil, and remaining 1/8 teaspoon black pepper.
• Reduce heat and cook until sauce is bubbling but not thickened, about 10 minutes longer.
• Spread 1/2 cup of sauce in prepared baking dish. Cover with 1 lasagna noodle and top with 1/4 of eggplant and zucchini.
• Cover with 1/2 cup of sauce and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of mozzarella and 1 tablespoon of Parmesan. Repeat to make 4 more layers, ending with noodle topped with sauce. If any sauce remains, spoon over lasagna.
• Cover baking dish with foil and bake until bubbly, about 35 minutes. Uncover and bake until sauce is absorbed, about 10 minutes longer.
• Let stand about 5 minutes before serving.

WEIGHT WATCHERS SLOW COOKER LASAGNA

Steps:

• 1. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground chicken, chicken sausage, onion and garlic; cook, stirring frequently, breaking up meat with a wooden spoon as it cooks, about 5 to 7 minutes. I also add mushrooms after the meat browns, but that's optional. Stir in crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, salt, oregano, basil and red pepper flakes; simmer 5 minutes to allow flavors to blend.
• 2. In a medium bowl, stir together ricotta cheese and 1 cup of mozzarella cheese.
• 3. Spoon 1/3 of beef mixture into a 5-quart slow cooker. Break 3 lasagna sheets in half and arrange over beef mixture; top with half of ricotta mixture. Repeat with another layer and finish with remaining 1/3 of beef mixture.
• 4. Cover slow cooker and cook on low setting for 4 to 6 hours. Remove cover; turn off heat and season to taste, if desired.
• 5. In a small bowl, combine remaining 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese; sprinkle over beef mixture. Cover and set aside until cheese melts and lasagna firms up, about 10 minutes. Yields 1/6th of dish per serving.
• 6. Notes: To boost your vegetable intake, add a can of zucchini in tomato sauce to the meat mixture. You can also add 2 cups of sliced mushrooms to meat mixture. I add the chicken sausage (Italian style) to the mixture to kick the flavor a little, but it's great without it too. Adding it will affect points value. Without it, this recipe is 10 points per serving.

MEXICAN LASAGNA (WEIGHT WATCHERS)

While noodles are cooking, using your hands, break the chunks of canned chicken up until the chicken looks shredded and place in medium size bowl. Add in chili powder, cumin, onion, tomatoes, green chilies, 1 cup taco sauce and black beans.
• Spray a 9 x 13 pan with non-stick cooking spray. Place the remaining taco sauce evenly in the bottom of the pan, followed by 4 lasagna noodles (you’ll need to overlap the noodles slightly).
