Best 2 Lasagna In A Skillet In About 30 Minutes Recipes
LASAGNA IN A SKILLET - IN ABOUT 30 MINUTES!
What I love about this recipe, is that it's possible to have lasagna within approx. 30 minutes and only have one pan to wash! It's an easy weeknight recipe to prepare. Comfort food with ease. :) This is an adaption from Cook's Illustrated. *Note: I use preshredded cheeses for quick prep. The 30 minute time is what the original recipe states, and the time it takes me to prepare - however, the time is an approximation and may take a bit longer. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and cook until brown and crumbly, 5 to 8 minutes. Drain grease from skillet.

Tips:
- Use a large skillet to ensure that the lasagna cooks evenly and prevents the ingredients from overcrowding.
- For a richer flavor, use a combination of ground beef and Italian sausage.
- Add a layer of fresh spinach or kale to the skillet for an extra boost of nutrients.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of cheese. Mozzarella, ricotta, and Parmesan are all classic choices, but you could also try using fontina, provolone, or Asiago.
- If you don't have a lasagna noodle maker, you can use pre-cut lasagna noodles or even regular spaghetti noodles.
- If you're short on time, you can use a jar of marinara sauce instead of making your own.
- Serve the lasagna with a side of garlic bread or a fresh salad.
