45 MINUTE LASAGNA

December 22, 2014 By Joe Leave a Comment

What if you came home from work and craved LASAGNA?  Lasagna takes like 2 hours or more to make right?  Well you could go to the nearest Italian restaurant or you could prepare your own 45 minute skillet lasagna.  Same great taste in a hassle free 45 minutes.

Crack a nice red wine and start putting your own delicious lasagna dish together.  This recipe uses all the same ingredients as baked lasagna, including traditional lasagna noodles, but will be ready to eat in 45 minutes.

I made this on Saturday and started it at about 11:00 am.  I was eating it for lunch soon after while taking a few photos.  And, it turns out, the leftovers became an impromptu supper for 6 people that evening.  It was super good re-heated.   Make sure you print this recipe and have it often!
