Skillet Lasagna


Ingredients:

  • 1/2 pound ground beef
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons dried Italian seasoning, divided
  • 1 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
  • 4 uncooked lasagna noodles, broken into large pieces
  • 1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes with onions, undrained
  • 1 (12-ounce) jar roasted red bell peppers, drained and chopped
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 5 teaspoons store-bought pesto
  • 3/4 cup (3 ounces) mozzarella-Parmesan cheese blend

Directions:

  1. Combine beef and salt. Cook beef in a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat, stirring until it crumbles and is no longer pink. Stir in vinegar and 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning. Dollop ricotta cheese by rounded tablespoons over beef. Top with broken noodles, making 1 flat layer (noodles will overlap a little bit).
  2. Pour tomatoes and bell peppers over noodles, making sure that noodles are completely covered. Add water, and sprinkle with remaining 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning. Dollop pesto by 1/2 teaspoons over top. Bring mixture to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 30 minutes or until noodles are fully cooked.
  3. Uncover and sprinkle with cheese blend. Cover and let stand 10 minutes or until cheese melts. Cut into wedges, and serve with a slotted spatula.
