Directions
Absolute Best Ever Lasagna, My family’s favorite This is a very meaty lasagna We prefer it with cottage cheese, but you can easily substitute ricotta , This really is a tasty recipe It has become my Go-To My only tweak is use 40 oz of my favorit store-bought Spaghetti sauce I confess I get confused about the layers – specifically the TOP final layer I always puts a little sauce on the noodles before topping off with the last of the Mozzarella cheese And I also find that it does indeed take just 12 noodles in a 9×13 dish = 4 layers of noodles total , The filling was very good but end product was a bit watery for my tastes One thing I would recommend is to NOT cook the noodles! I’ve been doing this for years and haven’t yet been disappointed Start with a bit of sauce on the bottom, place Uncooked noodles over sauce and continue to layer as suggested The noodles will be perfect texture and will soak up the liquid from the sauce/filling
