    Of course, you can buy a jar of pasta sauce if you're in a rush. But if you're here for authentic comfort food, try my homemade Italian marina sauce for a real treat. This stovetop lasagna is fantastic with homemade sauce.

    Ingredients
     

    • 1 cup ricotta cheese
    • ¼ cup parmesan cheese - finely grated
    • 1 large egg
    • 1 tablespoon olive oil
    • 1 small onion - finely diced
    • 3 cloves garlic - minced
    • 1 lb lean ground beef
    • 2 tablespoon italian mixed herbs
    • 1 can tomatoes - 15 oz with liquid diced
    • 1 cup water
    • 1 jar pasta sauce - 15 oz italian sauce
    • 10 lasagna noodles
    • salt and pepper - to taste

    Instructions

    • In a small bowl, mix together the ricotta, Parmesan and egg. Generously salt and pepper and set aside.
    • In a large cast iron, or oven proof skillet heat the oil over medium low heat. Add the onion and cook for about 3 - 5 minutes, until softened, then add the garlic and cook another minute or two.
    • Increase the heat to medium high, add the ground beef and stir and cook until no longer pink.  Stir in the Italian herbs, generously add salt and pepper, then drain any excess grease.
    • Stir in the tomatoes, water, and pasta sauce, then fold in pasta pieces (make sure they are all well covered by the sauce) and bring to a boil - reduce heat to a simmer and cook for about 20 minutes, or until the noodles are soft. Turn your oven broiler on to 400 F (200 C).
    • Dollop the ricotta mixture over the top with a spoon, then put in the top third of your oven and let cook for about 10 more minutes, watching carefully towards the end that the cheese topping doesn't burn.  (if you don't want to finish the lasagna in the broiler, just cover the pan again for about 10 minutes to cook the ricotta/egg mixture)
    • Remove from the oven and allow to cool for about 10 minutes before serving.

    Notes

    Of course, you can buy a jar of pasta sauce if you're in a rush. But if you're here for authentic comfort food, try my homemade Italian marina sauce for a real treat. This stovetop lasagna is fantastic with homemade sauce.
