Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 400° F.
Step 2
Meanwhile, in a large skillet sauté ground beef in olive oil until browned and crumbled. Add sauce and 2 cups of water, season with salt and pepper and simmer for 5 minutes.
Step 3
In a greased 13 x 9 inch baking dish, pour in 1 ½ cups of the meat sauce, top with 3 sheets of lasagne. The sheets will expand while baking to the ends of the dish.
Step 4
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.
Step 5
Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in oven for 25-30 minutes, remove the foil and top with the remaining cheese. Place back into the oven and let cheese melt. Remove lasagne, then top with basil then let it rest for 10 minutes before serving.
Oven-Ready Lasagne
The wide flat sheets of lasagne pasta originally made by the Romans were called lasagne. Lasagne later came to refer to a dish cooked in a pot using long flat pasta sheets, layered with minced meat, cheese, and tomatoes. Barilla® Oven Ready Lasagne does not require boiling the pasta before baking -- simply add it directly to your pan and bake.
Barilla® Oven Ready Lasagne is made with non-GMO ingredients. For more information, please read our position.
