Here it is:

Ingredients:

13 x 9 baking pan (glass is best), sprayed with Pam

2 lbs lean ground beef

1 TBSP minced garlic

9 lasagna noodles

8-12 ounces of ricotta cheese (I use whole-milk ricotta)

1-1.5 cups parmesan cheese

4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

4 eggs

1/2 TBSP dried oregano

1 jar Bertolli Olive Oil and Garlic spaghetti sauce

1 jar Bertolli 5 Cheese spaghetti sauce

Directions:

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Cook lasagna noodles until you can just barely pierce them with a fingernail.
  • Brown ground beef with garlic and drain off the grease. Combine with both jars of sauce.
  • Mix eggs and ricotta cheese together until smooth. Add oregano. Add a handful each of mozzarella and parmesan.
  • Lay 3 noodles on bottom of sprayed dish. Spoon 1/3 of sauce mixture evenly on the noodles, then spoon 1/2 of ricotta mixture on. Sprinkle on a handful each of mozzarella and parmesan.
  • Add another layer of 3 noodles. Spoon another 1/3 of the sauce and remaining ricotta onto the lasagna.
  • Add remaining noodles. Top with remaining sauce. Cover with remaining mozzarella and parmesan.
  • Bake for 45 minutes to an hour. I usually bake for an hour, because my family likes our lasagna to be rather dark.

Like I said, it is definitely NOT low calorie or low fat, but it's one of my family's favorite "sometime dishes."

Tried this recipe yesterday and it was delicious ! Thanks for sharing. :hungry:

Ok...I'm usually nice and am the one quietly laughing and agreeing while you guys post about your peeves...but I couldn't help myself on this one. How the hell is your band attached to the blood vessels in your nose? The only thing I can think of is if they had some sort of assisted breathing at the hospital but from my experience, I had a tube down my throat.

I didn't know they were now banding the nasal cavity. Oh...it is way too early for this!

I suppose it's possible that the heparin that they used during surgery to prevent clotting hasn't worn off yet, but I don't know the first thing about blood thinners. Most likely, she just had a bloody nose, though.

Fried foods .... anyone try fried mac & cheese? .

I was just watching Paula's Party and she deep fried jellied cranberry sauce....I love cranberry sauce and I wonder how this would taste....but.....I'm afraid I can't bring myself to eat that many calories.

Deep-Fried Cranberry Sauce Fritters Recipe courtesy Paula Deen, 2007See this recipe on air Tuesday Nov. 20 at 12:00 AM ET/PT. Show: Paula's PartyEpisode: Deep Fried Thanksgiving spacer.gifIP0307_Cranberry_Fritters_e.jpgspacer.gifspacer.gif

1 (13-ounce) can jelly style cranberry sauce, sliced into 1/2-inch thick rounds

2 cups all-purpose flour, divided

2 tablespoons sugar

Pinch salt

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 cup Water

Oil, for frying

Lay the cranberry sauce rounds out in a single layer on a parchment paper-lined sheet pan and freeze for 4 hours or until solid. In a shallow bowl, place one cup of the flour. In another shallow bowl combine the remaining cup of flour with the sugar, salt, and baking powder. Pour in the water and stir together until smooth. Let the batter rest for 15 minutes. Heat the oil in a deep-fryer or large Dutch oven to 375 degrees F. Dredge the frozen cranberry sauce rounds in the flour. Then dip rounds in the batter and gently place in the oil. Fry until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Serve and enjoy immediately.

I love whole cranberries. They grow them around here. I can't even imagine ruining them by frying them.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
