LASAGNA WITH SPICY ROASTED CAULIFLOWER



Lasagna With Spicy Roasted Cauliflower image

Now that I've discovered how delicious roasted cauliflower is and how easy it is to do it, that's the only way I want to cook it. It might be difficult to abstain from eating the cauliflower before you've gotten it into your lasagna.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, casseroles, main course

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 pounds cauliflower (3/4 of a medium head)
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
3 cups marinara sauce, preferably homemade from fresh or canned tomatoes
7 to 8 ounces no-boil lasagna
8 ounces ricotta cheese
2 tablespoons water, vegetable stock or chicken stock
Pinch of cinnamon
4 ounces (1 cup) freshly grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Cut away the bottom of the cauliflower stem and trim off the leaves. Cut the cauliflower into slices 1/3 inch thick, letting the florets on the edges fall off. Toss all of it, including the bits that have fallen away, with the olive oil, salt and pepper. Place on the baking sheet in an even layer. Roast for about 15 minutes, stirring and flipping over the big slices after 8 minutes, until the slices are tender when pierced with a paring knife and the small florets are nicely browned. Remove from the oven, toss with the red pepper flakes and set aside. Turn the oven down to 350 degrees.
  • Blend the ricotta cheese, water or stock, cinnamon, salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Oil a rectangular baking dish and spread a spoonful of tomato sauce over the bottom. Top with a layer of lasagna noodles. Spoon a thin layer of the ricotta mixture over the noodles. Top with a layer of cauliflower, then a layer of tomato sauce and a layer of Parmesan. Repeat the layers, ending with a layer of lasagna noodles topped with tomato sauce and Parmesan.
  • Cover the baking dish tightly with foil and place in the oven. Bake 40 minutes, until the noodles are tender and the mixture is bubbling. Uncover and, if you wish, bake another 10 minutes, until the top begins to brown. Remove from the heat and allow to sit for 5 minutes before serving.

LORI'S SPICY CHIPOTLE LASAGNA



Lori's Spicy Chipotle Lasagna image

Don't sacrifice lasagna just because you don't like lasagna. This version packs lots of flavor from Parmesan and Asiago, and is made with few noodles so you low-carb dieters can enjoy it, too!

Provided by Lori

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Italian

Time 2h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 pound lean ground beef
1 pound bulk hot Italian sausage
1 onion, chopped
1 pint sliced fresh mushrooms
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 chipotle chile in adobo sauce, chopped
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
2 (15 ounce) cans stewed tomatoes
sea salt and ground black pepper to taste
½ cup chopped fresh basil
¼ cup chopped fresh oregano
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, at room temperature
1 pound frozen chopped spinach, thawed
9 lasagna noodles
2 (8 ounce) balls of fresh mozzarella, sliced
2 zucchini, thinly sliced lengthwise
1 cup grated Asiago cheese
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Cook and stir the ground beef and Italian sausage in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat until lightly browned. Drain any excess grease, then stir in the onion, mushrooms, and garlic. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes more. Stir in the chipotle chile, tomato paste, and stewed tomatoes. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer for 15 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper, then stir in the basil and oregano; simmer 5 minutes more then remove from the heat.
  • While the sauce is simmering, stir together the cream cheese and chopped spinach until blended. Leave the spinach soggy, the water will help thin out the cream cheese to a sour cream-like consistency.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Line the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish with a sheet of aluminum foil, and lightly grease. Place 3 lasagna noodles on the bottom of the pan, and spread with 1/3 of the spinach mixture. Spread 1/3 of the chipotle meat sauce over this, then layer with 1/3 of the mozzarella and 1/3 of the zucchini. Sprinkle with 1/3 of the Asiago cheese and 1/3 of the Parmesan cheeses. Repeat layers two more times, ending with cheeses on top.
  • Cover the dish with aluminum foil, and bake in preheated oven for 40 minutes. Uncover, and continue baking until the top is bubbly and golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right type of lasagna noodles. There are two main types of lasagna noodles: regular and no-boil. Regular lasagna noodles need to be boiled before baking, while no-boil noodles do not. No-boil noodles are a good option if you're short on time or don't want to deal with the extra step of boiling the noodles.
  • Use a variety of cheeses. The best lasagna recipes use a combination of cheeses, such as mozzarella, ricotta, and Parmesan. This creates a rich and flavorful filling.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different sauce recipes. There are many different ways to make lasagna sauce, so feel free to experiment until you find one that you like. You can use a simple tomato sauce, a meat sauce, or even a white sauce.
  • Layer the lasagna properly. The order of the layers is important in lasagna. The bottom layer should be a layer of sauce, followed by a layer of noodles, and then a layer of filling. Repeat this process until you have used up all of the ingredients.
  • Bake the lasagna at the right temperature. Lasagna should be baked at a high temperature (375 degrees Fahrenheit) for the first 30 minutes, and then at a lower temperature (350 degrees Fahrenheit) for the remaining time.

Conclusion:

Lasagna is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With so many different recipes to choose from, there's sure to be a lasagna that everyone will love. Whether you're looking for a classic lasagna recipe or something a little more unique, you're sure to find it in this article.
