Good morning amica.com let’s start what do we have let’s do it so so Alex I know you’re going to talk to us about this this one pot plan and we’re starting with the Lazy Girl lasagna La tell us how this is done it’s my skillet lasagna

I also like to call it my lazy girl lasagna because I grew up my mom’s Italian she made lasagna but never on a week night just because it is a little bit of a cumbersome thing to make but this is one of those lasagna that you

Can put Allin one Skillet and even my friends that don’t like to cook make this all the time so it’s literally done in one Skillet right here you can smell the onion and the garlic that’s what we’re smelling right now and then you’re just going to add um I have two types of

Meat I do a little bit of a combination of ground beef and then some Italian sausage you could go spicy Italian sausage or you could go mild depending on your pettes at home and you just kind of brown that up and break it up that’s step one drain off the meat which is

What we have over here and this is when we add in the sauces this is what I like to do in my book dinner tonight is turn to those convenient things that you might have in your pantry already like a jar of marinara so

I just throw that in and then I also use you could use homemade if you’d like but a bottle of store bought pesto works really great in this recipe it’s going to add that herbaceous flavor and make it feel like it’s super Gourmet without you having to do much so we’re also

Going to add in like that a little bit yes we all do especially after all that holiday cooking we’re going add in a little bit of pesto here we’re also going to add it again at the end and I also like to add a little bit of lemons

Going to give it a little bit of zing and some freshness to the dish as well and again this is all in one pot all in one pot which I’m about to blow you guys’ mind I’m already looking ahead going okay I see this where does the lasag layer

Come okay so after we get the sauce all going and that flavor is really built into there now it’s time for the part that my Italian grandfather is probably rolling over in his grave watch do this I know if you took one bite of it he would approve but you basically take uh

No boiled lasagna and you just crack it right into the Skillet um and you’re going to break it into like two 2in pieces and it’s okay if it gets a little Jagged all going to bake off um we stir it into that meat mixture um just like

So you just put it right in just like you just literally pour it right on in and you’re just going to kind of fold it into there which seems silly you know the reason that this inspired me because I grew up on Hamburger Helper and my mom sometimes made

So it originally kind of started off to be like that and then when I popped in the oven and baked it and it was good lay layer this this is a h this is a gourmet Skillet Hamburger Helper situation so you just kind of flatten it

Back down just like this and you can see that’s what we have here that’s the finished product over there right making it B we trying to get you just make it a little bit Bouie by adding some mozzarella some dollops of pesto in there and then we pop in the oven I’m

Just going to cover it with some foil and then again to make it a little bougie and look a little pretty little rasle dazzle razzled dazzle it make it shiny no one will know that you did all smarter not harder you’ve been working all day on this lasagna just like my mom

Did but really you spend 20 minutes and the next dish and then look it’s baked off and beautiful look at that I mean it looks like a real lasagna and it’s layered like one too and y’all can try it here and then in my book I have a lot

Of skillet dinners like this where you can put everything all in one Skillet and have your dinner so this is my Greek inspired um chicken and orzo Skillet so it’s got everything that you need all in one meal look who’s coming over here started so we’ll have to sorry I went
