Three Cheese Meat Lasagna #JoytotheTable

December 12, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 7 Comments

“This post is part of a social shopper marketing insight campaign with Pollinate Media Group™ and Barilla, but all my opinions are my own. #pmedia #JoytotheTable http://cmp.ly/3/8vNxcO.”

Hi Everyone!!

Today recipe was not just good but it actually brought our family together for a night of tree decorating, shopping and having fun. The day started out with a text from me, saying we are having lasagna for dinner tonight and then we are getting a Christmas tree! No if, ands or buts about it! Sure enough everyone got together around the table and we ate the most wonderful, simple lasagna dinner and then my Husband and his daughter went out and got a Christmas tree! It may not sound like much, but trust me, it is really hard to get my family to do things together because of everyone’s work schedule.
Three Cheese Meat Lasagna
The lasagna dinner that started it all, was my Three Cheese Meat Lasagna. It’s rich, thick, cheesy, meaty and just amazing! My Husband told me, I am not a lasagna person. Well this recipe changed his opinion. After his first bite, his exact words were tell Barilla that I love them and thank you so much for real pasta noodles. This is true, he really did say that! Little Jenny said this is amazing and asked for the recipe because she wanted to make it for her boyfriend. Wow, I never had so many compliments on a dinner!  This is a picture of the first serving from the pan.

This is what it looked like when it was done and my Husband said, save the leftovers, I’ll eat it tomorrow! Three people, 8 servings, two slices left! Yes you can say this was a hit!

So what made this lasagna so good? I used Barilla Lasagne Noodles and Barilla Tomato & Basil All Natural Pasta Sauce. This was the first time I ever boiled my own lasagne noodles and wow, they turned out really good! I thought they would break apart, but they didn’t!
Barilla Lasagna Noodles and Tomato Basil Pasta Sauce
While the pasta was cooking, I cooked some ground beef with onion and garlic for a little flavor. Once the noodles were done I added to my baking dish and topped with ground beef and ricotta cheese. I poured the Barilla Tomato & Basil All Natural Pasta Sauce over the top and then topped with part-skim mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese. Here it is just before going into the oven.

I baked it for 40 minutes and let it cool for 5 minutes. Let me just tell you, as soon as the buzzer went off, my Husband and Jenny were sitting at the table waiting!! I took my pictures and they were just waiting, with weird looks on their face. Jenny waited for me to eat, but my Husband dug in.
Three Cheese Meat Lasagna
This truly a wonderful pasta dish and my family couldn’t get enough of it. If you like cheese, this is sure to please your palate! The lasagna makes for a wonderful week night meal and a great meal to have with your family. I am really proud of this dish and I was so happy we had dinner together. It’s probably been almost a year since we all sat down together. I know it sounds ridiculous, but Jenny works most nights, so it’s always Hubby and I.

Three Cheese Meat Lasagna
I purchased my Barilla at SAFEWAY. If you go there you can get a $1 off the purchase of ONE (1) box of Barilla® Lasagne and ONE (1) Barilla® Sauce. That way you can make your own family style lasagna.  Lasgana is just a wonderful way for the family to come together.  I can’t believe this is all it took!!  lol  I already have another family night planned!  🙂

To get more pasta ideas and recipes, stop by Barilla’s Facebook page and tell them I said hi!!

What is your favorite kind of lasgana?  Do tell, maybe I will make that kind next?


Have  a great day!

Toodles,

Jennifer

      Hi Shannon! I took a lactose pill before eating this. I need to get my cheese fill in every once in a while. 🙂

Happy Thursday! A couple weeks ago I was inspired Happy Thursday! A couple weeks ago I was inspired to clean under my kitchen sink from my friend Claire @huntersridge_designs. Let me tell you I couldn’t be happier.
🧽
When I opened my cabinets, everything fell out. I had like 10 million Target bags jammed in the back, sponges everywhere and 1/2 empty bottles of cleaners.
🧽
I measured my space in the cabinet and was lucky enough that the items Claire purchased for her under the sink were the exact fit for my cabinet. 
🧽
The drawers are a game changer. Highly, highly recommend the drawers. I filled them with sponges, and dishwasher tabs. Now they are not lost and easy to grab. 
🧽
The storage bins were purchased on Amazon. Check out Claire’s Instagram page for links.
🧽
Is your under the sink organized?

Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is that I love Target. It’s my happy place. I get so excited each season to see all the new things that come out. 
🌿
One thing I always love is there faux vase/pot flowers and plants. They are always so pretty and I want to buy them all. But there a couple of things that stops me. The biggest one is that I have no storage for them. Two, they seemed to have gone up in price. They seemed a little pricy to me. 
🌿
For my arrangement, I used one of my canisters for the bathroom. I used floral foam to stick the stems in and I used the paper towel as a filler because I only had very little bit of moss. If I had more moss and I would probably not use the paper towel. This arrangement cost me $5.99. 
🌿
Tip: If you look at Targets faux foliage stems only, they have a lot that are same of what use in there vases. The one I used was Hearth and Hand and was only $5.99 for a stem. The exact ones they used in there pots.
🌿
Hope you enjoy this as much as I have making it. 
Enjoy your day!

Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep clea Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep cleaning in my kitchen on Monday. I washed the floors, cabinets, counters and decluttered the countertops. It feels so good and everything is so bright and clean. Well….
💖
My husband decided to take vacation days this week, and my kitchen does not look so pretty. He has his 💩 everywhere. So annoying. 
💖
Here’s a little bit of the styling that I did. I will work on the coffee bar this weekend, though I’m running a blank on how to style it. I need some inspiration.
💖
What do you do to get inspiration?
