A delicious lasagna that is made in a cast iron skillet. This weeknight winner pleases the whole family!
Yippee! Another weeknight winner! I know it’s summer, but we’ve been hit with some monsoon weather and flooding, and I’m in mood for some homestyle cooking!
I love lasagna, but don’t always have the kind of time required to make it the traditional hard way. This is all cooked in one skillet, and you can clean the other couple of bowls used while this cooks.
Assembling and throwing in the oven leaves you free to do other things before dinner (like drink wine).

I mean, LOOK!
DEVOUR
Homestyle means different things to different people. For me, it’s food made with love and care. This Skillet Lasagna really fits the bill.
Sub the cottage cheese for ricotta, and/or the no boil lasagna sheets for regular, or use different flavored sauce. It’s easy to change this up and make a different flavored lasagna for each night of the week!
Gather ingredients
This is how I made it, and since there were no leftovers, I can only assume that others in the family enjoyed it too. Hope you try this and let me know how it goes!

Love an easy pasta dish that I know my kids will eat. Lasagna always takes so long to put together but not this one!

I think every family would love this! So much easier than making your own bolognese, boiling noodles, making béchamel, etc. etc. For my daughter’s birthday, I spent two days making lasagna!!! Ugh.
Mary Ellen
This looks so good!!! I have tried the thick and hearty traditional and loved it. I want to try the 4 cheese and roasted garlic!
Kate
I absolutely love the idea of skillet lasagna!
mary
I love to make lasagna, but I do not do it often because it is so labor intensive. I need to try this skillet method and use the Hearty Meat sauce!

Love me some ragu sauce . Always have a couple in my pantry for quick weeknight meals. This looks utterly delicious. YUM.

I really need to get myself a skillet, as it seems that there is so much that you can do in them.

This is genius! I love this idea! I love my cast iron skillet too!

I love your technique! It looks so easy – and it makes a reasonable amount, too. (I’m not doing the whole big pan for the two of us… This gives one meal and a reasonable amount leftover for later.)
