How to Make 5 Way Lasagna Cincinnati Lasagna
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large Dutch oven, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat until hot.
- Crumble 1 pound of ground beef into the heated pan.
- Add 1 medium chopped onion and stir frequently until the ground beef is finely crumbled and completely browned (about 5 minutes).
- Reduce heat to medium. Add 28 ounces (one 28 ounce can) of your favorite tomato sauce, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 tablespoon chili powder, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon ground allspice, and ¼ teaspoon ground cloves.
- Stir in ¼ - ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper (to taste) and salt to taste.
- Reduce heat to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, for 15 minutes.
- Spray an 8x9x3 inch glass casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray.
- Spread about 1 cup of the meat sauce in the bottom of the dish.
- Layer 2 lasagna noodles over the sauce, followed by 1 cup of meat sauce, 1/3 cup of 15-ounce can of kidney beans (drained and rinsed), and 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese.
- Repeat layers twice: noodles, meat sauce, beans, cheese.
- Top with the remaining 2 lasagna noodles, remaining meat sauce, and remaining cheese (about ¾ cup).
- Spray a piece of aluminum foil with nonstick cooking spray, cover the lasagna tightly, and bake for 50 minutes.
- Uncover and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
- Remove from oven and let rest for at least 10 minutes before serving.
