Pepperoni Lasagna
Friday February 5, 2010 10:32 AM
Ingredients:
- 2 lbs. lasagna noodles
- 2 cups sliced pepperoni
- 4 cups tomato sauce (use your favorite pasta sauce)
- 1 lb. ricotta cheese
- 16 oz. shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 lbs. bulk Italian sausage, cooked (I use hot)
- 3/4 cup grated Parmesan or Romano cheese
How to prepare:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Boil 6 quarts of water, add pinch of salt,
and cook pasta to almost done. Drain and set aside. In medium saucepan add pepperoni and saute over
medium heat until crispy. Remove from heat and drain on a paper towel. In a 10-x-14-x-3-inch baking
pan or dish, pour 1 cup of tomato sauce in bottom and around sides. Layer lasagna sheets on the
bottom of the pan, overlapping by 1/2-inch. Add 1/3 amount of ricotta, 1/3 amount of mozzarella,
1/3 amount of sausage, then sprinkle generously with the Parmesan, add 1/2 cup tomato sauce, and
1/4 cup of pepperoni. Repeat this 2 more times.
On the very top sheet, top with remaining ricotta, tomato sauce, mozzarella, pepperoni, and dust with Parmesan. Bake for approximately 45 minutes. Remove from oven; let sit for 15 minutes. Cut and serve immediately. Serve with Italian bread and a tossed salad. Enjoy!
