How to Make Gluten Free Lazy Lasagna

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 pound ground beef and 2 cloves minced garlic. Brown the beef, breaking it up with a spoon, for about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, to the skillet.
  3. Sauté until the onion is softened, about 3-5 minutes.
  4. Add 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes.
  5. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  6. Stir in 24 ounces tomato sauce, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1 teaspoon marinara seasoning, and 2 cloves minced garlic.
  7. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
  8. While the sauce simmers, cook 9 ounces gluten-free lasagna noodles according to package directions until al dente.
  9. Preheat your broiler to 500°F (260°C). Line a small (approximately 8x8 inch) oven-safe dish with foil.
  10. Spread a thin layer of meat sauce on the bottom of the prepared dish.
  11. Layer 1/3 of the cooked lasagna noodles over the sauce.
  12. If using, layer 1/2 cup roasted red peppers over the noodles.
  13. Pour half of the remaining meat sauce over the noodles and peppers.
  14. Top with 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese and 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese.
  15. Repeat layers: noodles, remaining roasted red peppers (if using), remaining meat sauce, and remaining cheeses.
  16. Broil for 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly browned. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
  17. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
