PHILLY CHEESESTEAK LASAGNA



Philly Cheesesteak Lasagna image

I love my Philly cheesesteak sandwiches with marinara, so I thought I'd try making lasagna! It turned out fantastic! Note that you do not have to boil your noodles for lasagna. Just let them soak in hot tap water for at least 20 minutes.

  • If you're short on time, you can use a jarred pasta sauce instead of making your own.
  • To make sure the lasagna is cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the lasagna is ready.
