Loved the Easy Skillet Lasagna. If I had read the recipe right to begin with I would have understood why my noodles were sticking. First, I only used 2 cups of beef broth (water mixed with Knorr's bouillon) instead of 28 oz. Second, I did not use a nonstick pan. Having said that I kept adding more water and it turned out fine. Well better than fine, it was great! Followed the recipe except substituted half ground turkey/half Italian sausage for beef and used fire roasted garlic canned tomatoes plus added fennel seed. I will definitely make this one again! Thank you so much for sharing!!
Sounds deelish. When did you add the Ricotta cheese? At the end or while it was cooking/
Oops.Sorry!
My family and I LOVE the skillet lasagna!!
I am also a 4-H leader and have used this recipe to teach kiddos to cook. It was a big hit!
