Let’s do cheesy Lasagna today friends – you know the kind that smells like heaven with all that melted cheese, a divine sauce with soft melt in your mouth vegetables , the kind you want to eat almost every night for dinner but then you remember you have those jeans sitting waiting for you to fit in them and you resist! But not today! Today we are eating our heart out and not worrying about a single calorie just because it’s almost hump day, my work motivation is negative and all I want is a huge slice of this goodness and netflix!

Since we are talking about lasagna – how can we not discuss pasta sauce?! For me sauce is the most important part in making a good to great lasagna and there have been times when my sauce did not turned out right and I knew that it the lasagna won’t taste the same! I usually make my own pasta sauces but this time I went with newly launched Classico Riserva Pasta Sauces. These sauces have no artificial ingredients or added sugar which makes me love them even more. I was super tempted to use spicy Arrabbiata for this lasagna but instead I went with the classic Puttanesca with just few basic ingredients and the results were amazing!

The sauce is really nice and thick which made the consistency of my lasagna sauce after adding vegetables just right!

Making lasagna at home is really simple – and not just any lasagna, a good cheesy lasagna the kind you get at proper real deal Italian restaurants! First I saute my vegetables in some oil and garlic. While vegetables are cooking I cook pasta sheets as per package directions.

Once vegetables are soft, add pasta sauce and spices. Just simmer, taste and sauce is ready! See told you super easy!

Now preheat oven to 425F and start assembling. I take a glass baking dish and spread some sauce at the bottom. Then I lay pasta noddles in a single line.

Then I add more sauce and some ricotta cheese.

Then I spread shredded mozzarella.

Then I lay smoked provolone slices since I love the flavor it brings but you can totally use any other cheese such as mozzarella slices or cheddar slices if you want.

Then you keep layering it until it’s packed all the way through. Then just bake and enjoy!

A huge thanks to Classico for sponsoring this post and making such yummy pasta sauce!

    We make a ton of casseroles, usually as a way to clear out the cupboards and freezer of things that have been up there too long. You can make them countless ways, and when you throw cheese on top, the kids will not complain about it. We primarily use condensed soups in these casseroles, but these sauces, with the variety of flavors they come in, would be a great substitute.

    I was never a huge fan of the super-meaty lasagnas and I LOVE how much lighter and healthier this one looks! And of course all that cheese is a BIG plus! 😉
