Instructions

  • Pre-heat oven to 400 °F.
  • Meanwhile in a large skillet sauté ground beef in olive oil until browned and crumbled.
  • Add sauce and 2 cups (500 mL) of water, season with salt and pepper and simmer for 5 minutes.
  • In a greased "13 x 9" baking dish pour in 1 ½ (375 mL) cups of the meat sauce, top with 3 sheets of Barilla Lasagne pasta.
  • The sheets will expand while baking to the ends of the dish.
  • Top the next layer with 1 ½ cups of meat sauce, 4 ounces of cheese and some basil.
  • Continue the same procedure for 3 more layers, but do not put cheese on the top layer.
  • Cover the baking dish with foil and cook in pre-heated oven for 25-30 minutes, remove the foil and top with the remaining cheese, place back into the oven and let it melt.
  • Once the Lasagne is out of the oven, top with basil then let it rest for 15-20 minutes before serving.
