Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 pound lasagna pasta
  • 1/2 pound Italian sausage ground
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 (15 ounce can) tomato sauce
  • 1 (6 ounce can) tomato paste
  • 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoons salt divided
  • 15 ounces ricotta cheese whole milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and lightly grease a standard size muffin tin. Cook lasagna noodles according to package directions. Cut 6 of them in half, lengthwise. Use a small cookie cutter to cut out 36 small circles from the remaining pasta.
  2. In a large skillet, cook ground sausage until cooked through, and no longer pink, about 5 to 7 minutes. Add in garlic, tomato sauce, tomato paste, Italian seasoning, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Bring to a simmer, then remove from heat.
  3. In a medium size mixing bowl, stir together ricotta cheese, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper.
  4. Line the bottom of each muffin cup with 1 of the cut out pasta circles. Curl each of the long strips into a ring to line the sides of each cup. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of sauce into the bottom of each muffin cup. Top with another layer of pasta circles and 1 tablespoon of ricotta mixture. Place remaining pasta circles on and another 1 tablespoon of meat sauce. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbling and slightly browned. Serve hot.
