Meat Lovers Lasagna

Last night I made a yummy lasagna for dinner.  I was super excited about making it because I found some ground pork when I was doing our weekly grocery shopping.  So I just cooked up the ground pork and some 80/20 ground pork and then mixed in the sauce.  I used some Ragu Meat Sauce just some basic and easy.  I did add some McCormick parsley flakes, McCormick rubbed sage and some McCormick Italian rosemary seasoning.  This was my base layer.  I always layer noodles on the bottom and then I put my tomato sauce ground meat on the noodles.  My hubby loves cheese so I added a bit of cheese on top of that layer.

 

I wanted to get a few veggies in the mix as well so I just heated up some smoked sausage and spinach and added it on my next layer.  I placed my Ricotta cheese on top of the spinach and sausage and then added a layer of noddles on top of the Ricotta.

The final layer I added two different kinds of cheeses on top to finish off the lasagna.

The final product came out the over looks good and greasy and it tasted great.

 

This is a great dish to make for a big family and I  think you can get at least 8 good servings out of this.  Here’s a great price breakdown.

1.5 pounds of ground pork – $2.34

1 pound of ground beef – $2.48

1 box of lasagna noodles – $1.49

1 medium size tub of Ricotta cheese – $0.99 on sale with a coupon

2 packs of shredded cheese – $1.98 ($0.99 on sale)

1 pack of smoked sausage – $1.99

2 cups of spinach – (I got the package on sale for $0.99)

Total cost I spent was – $12. 26

So my cost per serving at 8 people is just $1.53 per serving.  That’s great and it could be even cheaper if you adjust the ingredients used.  That’s a cheap eat.

 

I hope you give this meat lovers lasagna a try.
