Lasagna

I love lasagna and this is a perfect example of how easy switching to gluten-free can be. Just because you give up gluten doesn't mean you have to give up pasta. When I make lasagna I make extra to go in the freezer for those crazy days when you need a premade meal. Lets face it they don't make a lot of Gluten-free freezer ready made meals. Because life happens I put a lot of meals in the freezer for that purpose.

                                                                        Here's what you will need:

• 2 Boxes of Oven ready Lasagna Noodles
• 2 16oz containers of cottage cheese
• 1 16 oz container of ricotta cheese
• Your favorite tomato sauce
• Mozzarella cheese
• Parmesan cheese
• 2 eggs
• Salt
• Pepper
• Oregano
• Basil
• 2lbs of lean ground beef browned and drained

Step 1:       

Set oven to 375 degrees. Mix browned ground beef with tomato sauce.             

Step 2:       

Mix Ricotta, cottage cheese, 1/2 cup of parmesan cheese, 2 Tablespoons of Oregano, and 2 Tablespoons of Basil, Salt, and Pepper to Taste. Add Eggs after adjusting salt to the desired flavor.   

Step 3:       

In a greased baking dish put a small about of meat sauce down. Add a layer of noodles (You don't have to cook these which makes it even easier). Next a good layer of meat sauce, then a layer of the cheese mixture. Add noodles again and repeat the layers. Everyone's dish is different depts so you can get anywhere from 2-3 full layers. 

On your last cheese layer, your will top with mozzarella cheese.

Step 4:       

Bake at 375 degrees for 45 min or until hot through the center. With the remaining amount, you can build 1-2 more and put them into the freezer.

   

Serve with Gluten-free garlic bread and the vegetable of your choice. Enjoy a taste of our Gluten-Free Table.
