I don't boil my lasagna noodles nor do I use the 'non boil' ones. I use sauce that I add some meat to, ricotta, pepperoni and cheese. Layer what ever pan you are using with some sauce, add a layer of noodles, a thin layer of lasagna, pepperoni and then some shredded cheese and finally some sauce. Repeat that until it's almost to the top of the pan, usually three or four layers depending on the depth. I do add a little bit of water, like 1/8th of a cup so that the noodles don't suck up all the sauce. Cover it with aluminum foil and bake until the noodles are done, usually about 30 - 45 minutes at 350 degrees. Good luck!

I cook the noodles first {1-2 box}. Fry up two lbs of hamburger, add 12-16 oz ricotta cheese, and one bag of shredded mozzerela, and a jar spagetti sauce, mix well. Now layer noodles in pan, cover with hamburger mix, add more noodles, add more mix, add more noodles. Top with shredded mozzerella and parmagan cheese. Cover and bake in oven at 350* F for 40-60 min. Serve and enjoy!!!!!

Polish Style Lasagna SUBMITTED BY: Kim "Rich with potatoes, pasta, onion, butter and cream cheese, this pierogi-like dish is the best! It's also quick and easy to make. Serve with your favorite vegetable." INGREDIENTS 9 uncooked lasagna noodles 1 onion, sliced 1/2 cup butter 2 2/3 cups dry potato flakes 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese DIRECTIONS Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Cook lasagna noodles according to package directions. Drain, pat dry and interleave in a damp towel to keep moist OR spray each noodle with cooking spray OR lightly apply some oil. In a separate large skillet over medium heat, combine the onions with the butter and saute for 5 minutes. Prepare the instant mashed potatoes according to package directions, but omit the milk. Stir in the cream cheese until well blended. Place 3 noodles in the bottom of a lightly greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Spread 1/2 the potato mixture over the noodles in the dish. Top this with 3 more noodles, followed by the other 1/2 of the potato mixture. Finish by topping with the remaining 3 noodles, then top those with sauteed onions. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 20 minutes, or until bubbly. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before cutting.
