- 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.
- 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.
