Lasagna for 1


Holy hell ain't this the cutest thing ever?! Here's how to make a mini lasagna for 2. Or if you're a fat fuck like me that loves huge portions, this could totally be a dish for one! Don't forget you can make side dishes for this too like stuffed mushrooms and mashed potatoes. 

Dish used is a 5x5 square ceramic.

First we need to make the marinara. If you want to be super duper fast at making this dish then used canned garbage Prego or some shit. I kid! But you can still use it if you want. No judge. Marinara gives lasagna some flavuh!

1/3 cup minced onions (or 50g)
1 garlic
7.5 oz tomatoes diced
1 tsp tomato paste
2 tsp Italian seasoning
1/3 tsp salt
1/3 tsp pepper
1/3 tsp sugar
Meat optional (I intended in using frozen meatballs in here but I didn't have any. Still taste great!)

Saute onions. When fragrant saute garlic for 30 seconds.

Add diced tomatoes a few minutes until they break down a little. Doesn't take long.

Add tomato paste, sugar, Italian season, salt and pepper.

Turn down heat to low and let simmer for 30 minutes covered.

Cook 2 lasagna noodles. I used oven ready noodles which does not require boiling but working with soft noodles is preferred. Break carefully into a just shy of 5 inch pieces. Uneven is fine because who gives a fuck it's getting eaten anyway. Fit your 5 x 5 dish or whichever one you're using.

Spoon 3-4 spoonfuls of tomato sauce at the bottom of dish.

Place 2 noodles down.

Pour half of marinara on noodles. Top with a generous amount of cheese. 

Set last 2 noodles. Pour last of marinara and generous amount of cheese. 

Place your small dish preferably on a baking sheet to catch potential spillage.

Bake in 375 degree oven for 30 minutes.

Let rest for 10. Sprinkle some parsley. 

Bam!! Dinner!!
