[sharpandcuddly]

Okay, this is my favorite kind of lasagna because it's really easy and fun to make, and while it's cooking, you can make the side dishes!



LASAGNA:
INGREDIENTS:

* 1 1/2 pounds ground beef
* 1 small onion, chopped
* 1 (28 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce
* 3 pounds frozen cheese ravioli, thawed
* 4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2. In a skillet over medium heat, brown ground beef with onion; drain grease. Pour in spaghetti sauce and simmer 5 minutes.
3. In a 9x13 inch baking dish, spread enough sauce and beef to cover bottom and put a layer of ravioli down end to end. Spread a layer of sauce and cheese just like you would with regular lasagna. Keep layering and finish with sauce on top.
4. Bake uncovered in a preheated oven for 1 hour. Let sit for 5 minutes before serving.


GARLIC BREAD:
INGREDIENTS:
* One loaf of bread, sourdough is what I use, not sliced.
* One stick of butter
* Two garlic cloves, chopped finely
* Any cheese of your choice, shredded (optional)

DIRECTIONS:

1. With a sharp knife, make a few slits into the top of the bread, not too deep, leaving about half an inch before the bottom of the bread.
2. Put the chopped garlic and butter in a microwave safe bowel and heat in microwave untill butter is melted. Stir.
3. Pour in small amounts the butter/garlic mixture into the slits of the bread.
*4. Sprinkle shredded cheese on top of loaf and wrap in aluminum foil completely.
5. Set in oven with lasagna, bake untill you can smell the garlic and the bread looks warm done and slightly crispened. (Pull back the foil)


Eat and enjoy a yummy meal!
