Why You’ll Love This One Pot Lasagna Pasta

Have you ever tried to make traditional oven-baked lasagna? Yeah, so have we, and honestly, we’re not huge fans. Sure, it’s tasty, but it’s so hard to make! Not to mention, it takes pretty much all day. So, instead, we much prefer to transform traditional lasagna with quick alternatives like this Easy Lasagna in a Mug or our favorite Honeycomb Lasagna. However, we didn’t stop there! With comfort food season just around the corner, we thought it was time we made a family-friendly one pot lasagna dish! It’s: 

• Ready in just 15 minutes

• Made with minimal ingredients

• Creamy, comforting, and indulgent

• Just as tasty as traditional lasagna with half the work

Ingredients You’ll Need

Unlike traditional pasta which requires a million ingredients, we reduced this recipe down to just the basics. As a result, it’s easy to prepare and more budget-friendly. Here’s what you’ll need: 

• Lasagnette Rice Pasta – If you’ve never seen lasagnette pasta, it’s individual pasta noodles that resemble long sheets of lasagna. However, any similarly shaped pasta noodle like Campanelle will work. 

• Homemade Bolognese Sauce – For the richest flavor, we prefer to make homemade bolognese like we did with this recipe. Yet, if you’re in a pinch for time a high-quality storebought version will work just as well. 

• Water or Broth – We love to use chicken or veggie broth for richer-tasting pasta, but water is totally fine, too. 

• Salt and Pepper – Season according to your preferences! 

• Whole Milk Ricotta and Low-Moisture Mozzarella – You can’t have lasagna without a hearty dose of cheese! For the creamiest texture and most indulgent flavor, we combine rich whole milk ricotta with low-moisture mozzarella.

2. Stir, and bring the liquid to a boil.

Serving Suggestions

For a family-friendly dinner, we love to pair this lasagna pasta with sides and appetizers like: 

• Olive Cheese Bread

• White Bean Dip

• Greek Salad

• Crispy Air Fryer Chicken Wings

Can I Make One Pot Lasagna Ahead of Time? 

Yes! In fact, we highly recommend making a double batch for easy meals to enjoy throughout the week. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Or, freeze it for up to 3 months. 

To reheat, just pop your thawed lasagna pasta it in the microwave for a minute or two. Or, warm it in the oven at 375° Fahrenheit until heated through.
