Lasagna

[rootofnewt]

I'm putting my mother's three cheese lasagne recipe here so that I can memory market and keep it around. I generally use Muir Glen tomato sauce (organic) and Tinkyada brown rice noodles--cook them a little less than the package says. You can make the sauce thinner and let the dry noodles soak it up, but I never do. If mixed up before the noodles boil, the dried minced onion soaks up all the liquid, so I often add an extra small can of sauce or a 6oz can of tomato juice.

Cheese Lasagne

1 (15 oz.) can Hunts Tomato Sauce
½ C. minced onion
½ t. garlic powder
2 t. Italian herb seasoning
2 eggs, beaten
1 (16 oz.) carton ricotta cheese
1 (8 oz.) pkg. lasagna (I use 6 noodles)
1 lb. mozzarella cheese (thinly sliced)
½ C. grated Parmesan cheese

Combine sauce, onion, garlic powder and Italian seasoning. Blend eggs with ricotta cheese. Spoon a little sauce mixture into 9 x 13” baking dish to coat bottom. Arrange a layer of noodles, ricotta mixture, sauce and mozzarella. Repeat until finished. Sprinkle with Parmesan. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before cutting. Serves 6.

Actually, I think Aunt Nancy deserves the credit. She gave me the recipe.

Do you use any particular brand of Italian herb seasoning? I also bought pastariso brand (looks to be a Canadian brand) of brown rice lasagna noodles--no tinkyada to be found 'round these parts :(
