Italian Style Gluten Free Lasagna
I spotted this gluten free pasta at my neighborhood grocery outlet store for $1.99!!! For gluten free pasta it is a bargain!
Things you will need:
Pasta Gluten Free this or any brand.
1 small onion diced (any type onion)
3 or more gloves of garlic minced (I use a lot of garlic, we are Italian!)
2 29oz. cans of tomato sauce or homemade if you have some handy (adjust amount accordingly)
Italian Seasoning (I don't measure this other than to say I make my hand into a little cup and eye ball it -sorry)
1-2 pounds lean ground beef or ground turkey
2 cups of shredded cheese Italian blend( parm and mozz )or other to your taste, and more if you prefer.
1/2 pound fresh mozzarella sliced and cut into fourths (this takes the place of ricotta cheese for me)
1 cup additional cheese of your choice for topping casserole.
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
Casserole dish
To Make The Sauce :
Brown ground beef or turkey and onion in stock pot over medium heat. Add garlic,sauce,Italian seasoning, salt, pepper and let simmer for about 20-25 minutes. Adjust seasoning if needed. Your house is going to have the smells of Italy rafting through it!

Cook for the suggested amount of time.When cooked drain and set aside to cool.

Continue until you have several layers.Top with additional cheese, cover loosely with foil and bake 25-30 minutes, uncover and bake 5 more minutes. Let rest 10-15 minutes.
