I made this using ground turkey instead of sausage to cut down a little on fat. I also made my own tomato sauce, and added some parmesan and an egg to the ricotta, then layered the whole thing like you would lasagna. I really liked the ease of assembly, versus lasagna which takes forever. I froze part of it for later, and it froze wonderfully. Such a good, easy casserole that can be made ahead of time. I adjusted seasonings a lot to suit our tastes, and used fresh garlic and onion, but the idea was the same. Thanks!
Easy and really flavorful. I used parmesean and an egg in with the ricotta. Will definately make again.
Made lots. Family wanted more sausage
YES! So yummy. Make it! Few changes I made: Add chopped onion garlic and green pepper to the (hot italian) sausage when browning. Also used fresh basil in the sauce instead of dried. That's it. So freakin' good I will definitely make this again - in place of boring old pasta and sauce.
Yum! I'm lazy and left the casing on sliced the sausage cut down on the cheese (only because we were short - we LOVE cheese around here) and used fresh basil instead of dried and it was awesome! I think it would have been just as good if I had made it per the recipe. Easy filling crowd pleaser!
Delicious, easy and just the right amount of seasoning. My boyfriend and family loved it. I was unsure about using the Classico sauce but it was as good as homemade. I used fresh basil instead of dried. I will definitely use this recipe again.
This was exceptional, love the sausage in it. I am not usually a huge fan of italian but this will be one that we make often.
I made this dish for my Bunco group last night.
They all raved about it and I had to print off
copies for everyone! The only thing I would do differently next time would be to lay a piece of foil on top of the pan next time I bake it. My cheese got kind of dark. Could have been my oven.
Great recipe I love Classico sauces! I did add egg to ricotta mix with some Italian seasonings and used ground beef instead of sausage. I think next time I will mix a little ground beef and sausage together. Thanks for the recipe!
Used sliced sausage sauteed with diced onion because that is what we had on hand. Next time we would put some oregano garlic and red pepper flakes.
