Skillet Lasagna

"I found this in our local paper and I've only made this once. I used my own home made sauce and served it with home made herb bread. It was really good and I will serve it again as it's something quick and hot to fix. It also stated for variety, layer sliced or chopped and cooked vegetables such as zucchini squash, onion, tomato or mushrooms. I'll add the mushrooms next time."

  1. Made this 3 weeks ago and froze the left overs. Had them for dinner tonight and they were wonderful. I took the advice of another reviewer and added the cottage cheese. Super easy and yummy for a week night dinner. I didn't mess up every pan and dish in the house to make this. I'll be taking the rest in my lunch tomorrow. Thanks for the post.
     
  2. Filling and very tasty. This is a quick, one dish meal that is super simple. I added mushrooms and garlic salt. Ricotta cheese would also be a good addition (more like real lasagna). Thanks for sharing. I'll be making this one again.
     
  3. WOW! I was a little skeptical, but after we sat down and I had my first bite, I was won over! I used marinara sauce and it was terrific! Next time I will add mushrooms because we really like them. It was so easy, I may never make real lasagne again!!! Thanks so much!!!
     
  4. I've made a similar recipe. . . very easy & good! I usually add 1 c. of cottage cheese while it's simmering (so it melts) -- makes it creamy!! Yum!
     
  5. Skillet Lasagna is very easy to make & quite tasty. I added some garlic salt & some mushrooms.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am retired and live in Oklahoma. We use to raise scottish terriers, but now just enjoy having 3..one of which is a rare wheatland scotty. We have 2 grown daughters and my oldest has my grandson & granddaughter. Katy is almost 13 now, and I love and cherish the time she spends with me. My youngest dd is FINALLY having a baby,,a little girl due on April 1 '05. We are very excited! Hubby and I love taking out our pontoon boat every chance we get...we love to fish, but I'm happy just to be out on the water :) I love all kinds of cookbooks, especially southwest and cooking for two meals. Of course Zaar is the best recipe site on the net! I've started copying zaar recipes for my granddaughter and she says she'll never be able to make them all :) My hobbies include my dogs,,grandkids, painting art hobbies, and most crafting...love garage sales too!! I really love working outside in my gardens, but health and "old bones" keep me from it more than it used to. My hubby and I love to travel and also fish. I have used this site for awhile now and I'm embarrassed I haven't shared more of mine. Guess I've been busy making yours! When I have a question, the members here are so friendly, helpful and very quick to answer back! Of course, you've figured by now I love to talk!! I have to say my love for cooking comes from my mom. She is one of those cooks that just gets into the kitchen and starts cooking with no recipes and everything she makes is wonderful! She's about the best "all around cook" I know! I'd like to think I "inherited" some of her cooking intuition :) But getting close to 80 (sorry mom, but you sure don't look it) she cooks circles around me!
