Main Ingredients
- 4 packets ramen noodles, discard flavor packet
- 4 cups tomato sauce, divided
- 2 cups grated parmesan cheese, divided
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8-x-8-inch casserole dish with baking spray and place it on a baking tray for easy handling.
- Prepare ramen noodles: Break each square block of ramen noodles in half through the middle to create smaller pieces that will fit nicely in the pan.
- First layer assembly: Place one layer of the broken ramen noodles evenly on the bottom of the prepared casserole dish. Spread 2 cups of tomato sauce over the noodles, then sprinkle with 1 cup of grated parmesan cheese and 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese.
- Second layer assembly: Add a second layer of ramen noodles on top of the first cheese layer. Pour the remaining 2 cups of tomato sauce over this layer, followed by the remaining 1 cup parmesan cheese and 1 cup mozzarella cheese, spreading evenly.
- Bake the lasagna: Place the casserole dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes until the sauce is bubbling and the cheese is fully melted and golden on top.
- Serve: Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly. Serve immediately for best taste and enjoy your comforting ramen lasagna.
Notes
- Use an oven-safe dish to avoid any heat damage.
- Feel free to add cooked ground meat or vegetables between layers for added flavor and nutrition.
- If you prefer a crispier top, broil for an additional 2-3 minutes at the end of baking.
- Make sure to discard the ramen seasoning packets as they can be overly salty and affect the flavor.
