Lasagna Recipe

Servings: 6-8
Prep Time: 15-20 minutes
Cook Time: 30-35 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs ground beef (or ground turkey)
  • 1/2 box lasagna noodles (about 9-12 noodles)
  • 1 jar (24 oz) spaghetti sauce
  • 1 jar (24 oz) marinara sauce
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
  • Salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning, to taste
  • Cooking spray (for the baking pan)

Instructions:

Step 1: Cook the Ground Beef
  1. In a large skillet, brown the 2 lbs ground beef over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of Italian seasoning.
  2. Once fully cooked (no pink remaining), drain excess grease and return the beef to the skillet.
  3. Add 1 jar of spaghetti sauce and 1 jar of marinara sauce to the browned meat. Stir until well combined, and let simmer on low heat while you prepare the other ingredients.
Step 2: Cook the Lasagna Noodles
  1. While the beef mixture is simmering, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add half a box of lasagna noodles and cook until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  2. Drain the noodles and set them aside on a plate. You can layer parchment paper between them to prevent sticking.
Step 3: Assemble the Lasagna
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  2. Start by adding a layer of cooked lasagna noodles at the bottom of the baking dish.
  3. Spread a portion of the meat sauce mixture over the noodles, then dollop spoonfuls of ricotta and cottage cheese on top.
  4. Sprinkle a generous handful of shredded mozzarella and Parmesan cheese over the ricotta/cottage cheese mixture.
  5. Repeat the layering process: noodles, meat sauce, ricotta/cottage cheese, shredded cheese. Make sure to finish with a final layer of shredded cheese on top.
Step 4: Bake the Lasagna
  1. Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
  2. After 30 minutes, remove the foil and broil for 3-5 minutes to get the top golden and bubbly.
  3. Let the lasagna sit for 10-15 minutes before cutting and serving to allow the layers to set.

Peaches and Cream Corn

Servings: 5 ears of corn
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 5 ears of fresh corn, husked
  • 2 parts water
  • 1 part milk (about 2 cups milk for 4 cups water)
  • 1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter
  • Bread and extra butter for serving (optional)

Instructions:

  1. In a large pot, combine enough water and milk (2 parts water to 1 part milk) to cover your corn. Add 1 stick of butter to the pot.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer and gently place the 5 ears of corn into the liquid. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until the corn is tender.
  3. Once cooked, serve with a pat of butter on a slice of bread to spread onto the corn. This method gives the corn a creamy, buttery texture.

Serve and Enjoy!

Pair the cheesy, hearty lasagna with the creamy sweetness of peaches and cream corn for a perfect comfort meal.
