"This is the best lasagna we have ever had, including restaurants! Great with a salad and garlic bread." — Kristy Kniest

Directions

In a large pot cook lasagna noodles in boiling salted water until al dente. Rinse with cool water. Drain.
In large sauce pan cook ground beef. Drain excess grease. Combine tomato sauces and tomato paste with ground beef and simmer until bubbly. Add garlic salt and Italian seasoning and reduce heat to low simmer. Cook for 10 minutes.
To assemble, in the bottom of a 13x9 inch baking dish spread a thin layer of sauce. Next, add a layer of noodles, ricotta cheese, sauce/ground beef mixture, and then grated mozzarella cheese. Repeat until baking dish is filled. Garnish top with additional shredded mozzarella cheese.
In a preheated 375 degree F(190 degree C) oven bake for 30 minutes or until bubbly. Let stand for 15 minutes and serve.

We love this! This is one with which I don't tinker a bit. I follow it exactly and it always gets rave reviews. I've been making it as my exclusive lasagna for over a year now with never-fail results.

This recipe used too much Italian Seasoning, and it was unclear about what sauce to use in the bottom of the pan. Do you use the sauce that has the meat mixed in it, or do you get some plain sauce to pour in the bottom of the pan.

This recipe was great! I used no bake noodles and it still turned out wonderfully. I also used less seasoning, about 2 tbls. It tasted great and gave my husband and I a week worth of dinners. I will definitely make this again!

I am a new found cook and I find myself being held up to the reputation of my mothers delicious homemade recipes. I decided to try this lasagna and it was so simple and fast! Cheap too! I bought all the ingredients for $10.00 and fed my boyfriend for an entire week! I would advise using a little more ricotta cheese but it tasted fantastic anyhow! Thanks for the help!

I'm not a big lasagna eater, but it's my boyfriend's favorite dish. I've never made lasagna before, and I wanted to make him a pan of it for his birthday. This recipe was PERFECT! The sauce alone was amazing! I loved it, he loved it, his co-workers loved it! Will DEFINITELY make again!

Definitely too much italian seasoning I recommend cutting it back to about 2tblsp too. I also think it couldn't hurt to use a little more shredded cheese. Will definitely be making this again but with these changes!!
