  • 2 cups ricotta cheese shredded
  • 0.5 cups Parmesan cheese grated
  • 0.25 cups fresh parsely chopped

  • 1 cups water
  • 12 lasagna noodles uncooked

  5. Pour 1 cup of red tomato sauce onto the bottom of baking dish. Top with layers of 3 lasagna noodles, 1/3 of the ricotta cheese mixture and 1 cup sauce. Repeat the same process with the layers until you have run out of ingredients. Finish with the remaining lasagna noodles, sauce and cheeses. Cover the lasagna with foil.
  6. Bake in the oven for 1 hour. Remove the foil after 45 minutes so it gets well heated through. Remove from the oven and allow the lasagna to cool down for 15 minutes before serving.
