LASAGNA PASTA PIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Cook and drain pasta as directed on package, using minimum cook time.
• Meanwhile, in 10-inch skillet, cook sausage over medium-high heat 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until no longer pink; drain. Stir in pasta sauce, ricotta cheese and cooked pasta; cook 1 minute.
• Separate dough into 8 biscuits; press each biscuit to 5 1/2-inch round. Firmly press rounds in bottoms and up sides of 8 ungreased jumbo muffin cups, forming 1/4-inch rim. Fill cups with sausage mixture; sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
• Bake 28 to 32 minutes or until golden brown. Cool 1 minute; remove from pan.

STUFFED LASAGNA PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the noodles until pliable but still very al dente, about 3 minutes less than the package cooking time. Drain, but do not rinse. (The starch from the noodles will help them stick to the sides of the pan.) Spread on a baking sheet. Cut 4 of the noodles crosswise into thirds.
• Toss the breadcrumbs and 2 tablespoons Parmesan together in a small bowl. Spray a 10-inch tube pan with cooking spray. Coat with the Parmesan breadcrumbs, tapping out the excess.
• Combine the garlic, carrot, celery and onion in a food processor or mini food processor and process to a paste.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Prick each sausage with a fork and cook until browned, 5 to 6 minutes; remove and set aside. Add the remaining tablespoon olive oil to the skillet and crumble in the beef and pork. Cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon, until browned, about 4 minutes. Add the aromatic paste from the food processor. Cook, stirring occasionally, until it dries out, about 3 minutes. Make a space in the middle of the pan and add the tomato paste. Cook, stirring the tomato paste until it darkens a shade or two, about 2 minutes, then stir into the meat. Season with the oregano, red pepper flakes and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Add the white wine and cook until reduced by half, about 1 minute. Add 1 cup water and simmer rapidly until very thick, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Combine the ricotta, egg, basil, parsley and 1/2 cup Parmesan in a medium bowl.
• Line the prepared pan with the whole lasagna noodles, overlapping slightly. Spread about half of the meat sauce in the bottom of the pan on top of the noodles. Nestle the sausages into the meat sauce, pressing down to submerge them about halfway. Top with a third of the sliced mozzarella, breaking the slices to fit. Top with half of the cut noodle pieces and press down gently. Spread the ricotta mixture over the noodles and top with another third of the mozzarella. Top with the remaining cut noodles and press again. Spread over the remaining meat sauce and top with the remaining mozzarella. Fold over the noodles used to line the pan to encase the filling and brush with olive oil. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan.
• Cover the timpano with foil and bake until heated through, 30 to 35 minutes. Uncover and bake until the top is crisp and golden-brown, about 30 minutes more. Let rest 45 minutes to 1 hour before unmolding. Run an offset spatula or butter knife around the edges of the pan to ensure it can be removed with ease. Unmold the lasagna by inverting it onto a serving platter. Arrange the basil sprigs in the middle. Slice with a serrated knife and serve with the marinara on the side.

LASAGNA SKILLET PASTA RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onion and garlic to the pan, stirring often, until soft. Move the onions and garlic to the edges of the pan. Add ground beef, McCormick® Dried Oregano, salt, and pepper to the center of the pan, breaking up the meat into smaller pieces. Let the beef sit undisturbed for a moment so the beef browns slightly. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until almost no pink remains.
• Add tomato paste to the pan and stir to combine. Add crushed tomatoes and chicken stock to skillet. Bring to a boil and add noodles to skillet, stirring so noodles are submerged. Lower heat to medium, cover with a lid, and cook for about 10 minutes, until noodles are al dente.
• Remove from heat, then stir in shredded mozzarella. Spoon dollops of ricotta over the pasta, cover with lid, and let sit for a few minutes until ricotta melts slightly. Sprinkle fresh basil over pasta and serve.
• Enjoy!

HOMEMADE LASAGNA PASTA SHEETS

Steps:

• Sift both flours into a food processor and sprinkle salt over. Set aside.
• Whisk whole eggs in a small bowl, and then whisk in oil and water.
• With the food processor running, pour in the egg-oil mixture slowly.
• Add the egg yolk as the mixture begins to form into a ball.
• Process until the dough is a buttery color and forms into a smooth ball, which should take about 30 seconds. DO NOT OVER-MIX.
• Remove dough from food processor and knead it with your hands for a minute.
• Form it back into a ball. Wrap with plastic wrap and let it rest for 20 - 30 minutes.
• Place dough on a lightly-floured surface and divide into four equal balls. Keep unused dough wrapped in plastic while you work, to prevent it from drying up.
• Lightly flour one of the dough balls and form into a disc.
• Feed it through a pasta machine roller set at the thickest setting (No. 1); repeat.
• Fold the dough strip into thirds or quarters to create a square.
• Feed the dough strip through the pasta machine six times, flouring as needed and decreasing thickness by one setting each time, ending at number 5 or 6, depending on the thickness desired.
• Cut dough into 13 inch long strips while soft.
• Dry strips on a rack or on a board for at least 15 minutes.
• Repeat with remaining 3 balls of dough.
• Use immediately. Or dry the strips completely (at least 24 hours) and store in a large re-sealable food storage bag for up to 3 days.

BROKEN LASAGNA WITH PARMESAN AND ALL THE PEAS

Steps:

• Break each noodle into 3 or 4 rough squares and add to a large pot of boiling generously salted water.

Cook, stirring occasionally and adding snow peas and shelled peas for the final 2 minutes, until al dente, 8-12 minutes. Drain pasta and peas, reserving 2 cups pasta cooking liquid.
• Meanwhile, combine lemon zest and juice, Parmesan, butter, and 1½ tsp. pepper in a large bowl. Add pasta, peas and 1 cup reserved pasta cooking liquid and toss, adding more pasta cooking liquid as needed if mixture looks dry, until Parmesan and butter are melted and noodles are well coated. Add sugar snap peas; toss again just to combine.
• Divide pasta among shallow bowls and top with shaved Parmesan and cracked pepper.
