Skillet Lasagna Recipe – and My Menu Plan

One Dish Skillet Lasagna at ASlobComesClean.com

One of the first recipes I found after discovering the world of blogs was Skillet Lasagna.  I wish I could remember where I found it, but I’ve been making it from memory for years now.

To say that this is a family favorite is an understatement.  The kids love it.

Here’s my recipe (which is more like instructions):

Ingredients –

  • one pound (or so) of pre-cooked ground beef
  • 8-10 lasagna noodles
  • One jar of spaghetti sauce
  • One cup (or so) of shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup (or so) of parmesan cheese
  • 1 to 1 1/2 cups of water

Combine the cooked-and-drained ground beef and the spaghetti sauce in a large skillet.

Break the lasagna noodles into pieces and stir into the sauce/meat mixture.

Add water to the skillet until the liquid (sauce and water mixed) just covers the noodles.

Bring to a boil, then cover the skillet with a lid (or foil) and simmer, stirring frequently, until the noodles are tender.

Once the noodles are tender, add in cheeses and stir until melted.

It’s not terribly pretty, but it’s yummy!

*************************************************************************

And now for our menu plan:

Monday – Skillet lasagna

Tuesday – Thanksgiving program and family meal at school

Wednesday – Hubby’s birthday!!  But . . . . we’re celebrating on Thursday since Wednesday nights are so crazy.  Spinach artichoke pizza.

Thursday – Chicken Fried Rice with shrimp and water chestnuts.  Birthday boy’s request!

Friday – Out to Eat

Saturday – Potato soup

FYI, this recipe is included in the two week plan that I teach you in Make Dinner Happen, the least fancy, most practical cooking course ever. You can learn more and see what recipes are included here.

I’ll be linking this up to Menu Plan Monday over at Orgjunkie.com.

    This looks great. I’ve been making lasagne soup a lot lately. (It’s a lot like this recipe only with beef broth to make it more of a soup. I adapted my recipe from Family Fun’s.) I spend a little extra and buy the fun Mafalda noodle shape pasta that Creamette makes. I’ve never bought lasagne noodles before. Are they more expensive than a normal box of pasta?

    I just made this recipe for dinner and all 5 of us LOVED it! Even my picky 5 year old had 2 helpings and asked to take it for lunch tomorrow. That has NEVER happened before. I followed your recipe exactly and only had to add some extra water and a little extra sauce but I think I was cooking at too high of a temp. Thank you so much for giving me a new recipe to add to our family favorite list.

    I had it all ready for my husband to make on the stove tonight as I had a CPR class. He’s very adept at Hamburger helper. I asked him how it was and he said, meh. Well, I forgot to tell him I had the bowl of cheese in the frig to stir in at the end!! boo!! So next time, I’ll make it right and my family will probably love it!

    Hey Nony,

    I am making this tonight and am really looking forward to it! I don;t have any lasagne noodles right now so I am going to use pasta. How much pasta would 8-10 noodles be?

      Here’s where I prove that I’m not a true recipe creator! I’ll just tell you what I would do – Put in the other ingredients (sauce, meat, water) and then add pasta, as much as you can with it still staying under the liquid line. Meaning, as long as the liquid covers the pasta, you should be fine. If it starts to look like there’s a problem, you can always add more water.

      Did that make ANY sense?

    That makes perfect sense!! I ended up using 1/2 of my canister’s worth of pasta…needed almost a full jar of water. It sire smells good. We are eating in a bout 10 mins!!

    Thank you!!

    Nony,
    I followed the link for the after swimming dinner ideas, not because we swim all day but because sometimes I am a lost minute meal maker instead of a meal planner LOL. Then I saw the recipe for Skillet Lasagna, YUM. You had a link for Org.junkie, Oh My Goodness, thank for all your help and inspiration. I have made 3 bags of donate, my daughter has sorted DVD’s and dare I say VHS tapes, and we are working on making our home clutter free.

    Do you use regular lasagna noodles or oven ready?

      Regular. But the oven ready would probably cook faster. (That’s totally a guess.)

    I’ll be trying this next week-we love lasagna but I’d like to make this and not heat the whole house up with the oven. Will be trying either without the meat or with a faux meat added at the end. Thanks!

    This looks so good! I bet you could toss in some spinach near the end and fold in a little cottage cheese or ricotta. Yumm

    Thank you so much! I just tried this without meat. Turned out fine!

    I stopped making lasagna many years ago, because I was so pressed for time with babies and young children – and I never got back to it. Part of the reason is that purchased frozen lasagnas are good and reasonably priced – so why bother? This recipe is easy enough that I don’t mind doing it, plus it’s cheaper.
