Lasagna Formaggio
Lasagna is one of the best Italian pasta dishes for a reason. Delicious and shareable, you can now make lasagna with the superior taste of Jersey tomatoes in a fresh store bought tomato sauce! Marinara would work just as well, but we love this lasagna recipe with our Roasted Garlic flavor.
Ingredients:
2 containers ricotta cheese (15 ounces each)
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (divided)
2 eggs
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon parsley flakes
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup water
9 lasagna noodles (uncooked)
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Mix ricotta cheese, 1 1/2 cups of the mozzarella cheese, eggs, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, parsley, salt and pepper in a large bowl until well blended.
Pour Roasted Garlic Sauce into a medium bowl. Pour water into an empty jar; cover and shake well. Add to sauce; mix well.
Spread about 1 cup of the sauce on the bottom of a 13x9-inch baking dish. Top with 3 of the lasagna noodles. Spread 1/2 of the cheese mixture over noodles. Repeat sauce, noodles and cheese layer once. Top with remaining noodles and sauce, making sure to cover noodles with sauce. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese. Cover with foil.
Bake for 45 minutes. Remove foil. Bake 15 minutes longer or until noodles are tender. Let stand 15 minutes before cutting.
Bon Appétit!
