Stove Top Lasagna

The Date: 14 November 2011

The Occasion: Quick Monday night meal. Love this go-to favorite!

The Recipe: A Betty Crocker recipe I've adapted from this book.

How it Went:
This is pretty much a no-fail meal. I had only a little Italian dressing in the fridge (who knew you could run out of that stuff!?) so it lacked the full flavor it usually has. But you really can't do this meal wrong. Yum!

What You Need:
ground beef or turkey
onion
green bell pepper
tomato sauce
Italian dressing
malfada pasta

Your Turn:
Chop one smallish onion and one green bell pepper.

Brown 1 lb of ground meat in a large skillet. Add onions and peppers to cook with the meat.

Drain grease from meat when cooked.

Add to skillet
  • 1 and 2/3 cups water
  • 1 jar tomato sauce (I use Francesco Rinaldi, Three Cheese)
  • 3 cups malfada noodles
  • 1/4 cup Italian dressing

Bring to a boil. Then turn to medium-low and let simmer about 15 minutes, stirring every so often until noodles are tender.

I failed to take a picture of this meal myself. This pic is from bettycrocker.com
