Evelyn's Ground Beef Lasagna With Alfredo & Marinara Sauce



Hello, Darlings!

Have you ever wanted to make lasagna, but discovered that you didn't have any ricotta cheese on hand or the fresh seasonings the recipe normally calls for, and time was running short to get supper on the table. Well ladies, below is my fabulous recipe for a quick and easy lasagna casserole that taste just scrumptious.  

What set this recipe apart is that instead of adding ricotta cheese and a bunch of seasonings, I add Alfredo & marinara sauce and a bit of black pepper. I only add salt to boil the lasagna.

To make this meal I use a 2-quart Pyrex covered glass casserole baking dish and six lasagna pasta. However, you can adjust the recipe to your preference. 

Now for my recipe.
