Mommy's Lasagna

Kathleen loves baked lasagna. One day, when she came back from school, she asked me if I could make lasagna for dinner.

So here it is my version of lasagna and she loves it. It has yellow squash in it and I mix the tomato sauce with fat free Ricotta cheese to make the meat sauce thicken and delis.

Ingredients:
• 1 pound of lean ground beef
• ½ chopped red onion
• 2 yellow squash (minced using a food processor)
• ½ small package of Fat Free Ricotta Cheese
• 1 pound of “Ragu” brand –Garden Combination tomato sauce or your preference
• 14 Oz of “Ragu” brand-Pizza sauce or your preference
• I bar of Mozzarella cheese
• Grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 Cup of water
• 3 tsp of salt
• 3 tsp of MSG or chicken bouillion
• Lasagna pasta
• oil

How to make:
• Sautee ground beef with red onion until it browned
• Drain extra fat using a coriander
• Place into food processor to get finer meat texture
• Add cooked meat, minced yellow squash, tomato sauces, ricotta cheese, water, salt and MSG into a pot
• Simmer for 20-30 minutes in medium heat
• Cook lasagna pasta until aldente, drain and set aside
• Turn on oven 400 degree F
• In a pyrex, pour a little bit of meat sauce at the bottom of pyrex so it won’t burn
• Second layer is lasagna pasta
• Third layer is meat sauce
• Fourth layer is sliced mozzarella cheese
• Fifth layer is lasagna pasta
• Sixth layer is meat sauce
• Last layer is Grated parmesan cheese
• Baked for 45 minutes to 1 hour
