No Noodle Lasagna

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1/2 cup Ricotta Cheese
  • 3-4 ounces sliced Mozzarella Cheese
  • 1/2-3/4 cup Tomato Sauce Italian Herbs to taste
  • Garlic, salt, pepper to taste

 

Preparation:

Brown Ground Beef and spices, stirring constantly to break up well. Add tomato sauce and stir. In a small casserole dish, layer beef/ricotta/mozzarella, etc, ending with Mozzarella on top. Bake at 350 for about 15 minutes, or microwave for about 30-45 seconds just to warm the cheeses. Dig in! This satisfies my craving for the tomato paste and garlic, but keeps me from buying the expensive LC noodles. I use the Spice Islands Italian Herb seasoning--Bunches of it--you can't even see the meat when I sprinkle it on top. Ditto for the garlic-3 cloves or so fresh or about a teaspoonful of the store bought. I do use the extra lean ground beef due to the high fat content of this recipe. Your carbs/serving will vary due to the type of Ricotta and the amount/type of tomato sauce. I usually figure mine's 3-4 grams/serving, but you'll have to add it up--OOOOH I just thought of something- you coult probably cut up 1/4-1/2 onion into the ground beef too (I'll have to try that next time) Sorry--I tend to "play" with recipes so writing them down is difficult.
