Single Serve Lasagna

Ingredients

• 1 tbsp olive oil (divided)
• 0.5 cup tomato sauce (can use up to 3/4 cup)
• lasagna noodles (uncooked, shaped to fit the baking dish and enough for 3 layers)
• 0.33 cup low fat ricotta cheese
• 0.25 cup mozzarella cheese
• 1 tbsp parmesan cheese
• garlic powder (to liking)
• Italian seasonings (to liking)
• salt and pepper (to liking)

Steps

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

2. 2

   To a small baking dish (approximately 5.5 by 4.5 inches), coat the bottom of the dish with a portion of the tomato sauce and olive oil.

3. 3

   Layer the lasagna by adding a layer of uncooked lasagna noodles, followed by more sauce, ricotta, mozzarella, parmesan, and seasonings to your liking.

4. 4

   Repeat the layering process until you have 3 layers of noodles and toppings.

5. 5

   Cover the dish tightly with tin foil or parchment paper.

6. 6

   Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the noodles are tender and cooked through.

7. 7

   Remove the cover and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the top layer of cheese is golden and bubbly.

8. 8

   Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.

Notes

The author suggests using a Staub 5.5 by 4.5 inch baking dish. Because the noodles are uncooked, ensure the dish is covered tightly during the first stage of baking to trap steam.
