So I made the Lasagna casserole and it was fabulous. My hubby gave it his stamp of approval. This was a completely vegetarian version however, make it your own and add meats, mushrooms or anything else your heart desires. The recipe is as follows~
Eggplant Lasagna
Homemade cooked or uncooked lasagna noodles or store bought cooked lasagna noodles
Fresh or jar of marinara sauce (about 1 1/2 to 2 cups)
Fresh or jar of alfredo sauce (about 1/2 to 3/4 cup)
Brined egglant, rinsed ( 1 to 2 cut depending on pan size) (recipe on blog before this)
pecorino romano or parmesan cheese (1/2 cup)
ricotta cheese (8 oz)
2 eggs
Tbsp basil and Tbsp oregano
1 Cup grated mozzarella cheese.
Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a 9 x 13 pan, put 1/2 cup marinara sauce around the bottom. Layer with one row of noodles. On top of that put another 1/2 cup marinara then all the sliced eggplant in one layer filling all gaps. In a seperate bowl, mix ricotta cheese, and eggs well and spoon and spread over eggplant layer. Spoon on another 1/2 cup of marinara and gently spread on top. Add the pecorino cheese and 1/2 the mozzarella. Sprinkle with basil and oregano. Top with the last layer of noodles and spoon the alfredo sauce on it. Sprinkle the last of the mozzarella and bake for 1 hour covered if using uncooked noodles or 40 minutes with cooked noodles. Plate with a little sauce under and on top of it.
Bountiful Blessings~
