Here's my recipe, and I HATE cooking! You will need:
A lasagna pan (they sell these in the grocery store)
No-Cook Lasagna noodles (no need to boil these first! Rock on!!)
a jar of meat-flavored tomato sauce
1-lb pkg ground beef (or turkey)-brown in saucepan- no need to buy the expensive stuff!
1-lb tub of Ricotta cheese
8 oz pkg mozzerella cheese
Preheat oven 350 degrees. Take your pan and spread a little sauceon the bottom. Now line the bottom with noodles. Then spread a layer of ricotta cheese. Now a layer of meat. Now some sauce. Repeat until you reach the top. Now, on the last two layers, add some shredded mozzerella on top of the sauce. You don't wanna put mozzerella on the whole thing because it will just ooze all over the place and look terrible! Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 1 hour. If you like a crispy top layer, you can remove foil for the last 15-20 minutes. When it's finished cooking, let it sit out for about 20 minutes to "settle". ENJOY!

90 minutes is about right for a lasagna. You should par boil the vegetables and cook the noodles the night before. Lay them straight and lightly cover them in oil to prevent sticking. Make the marinara the night before too. All of this should be enough to get your lasagna done the next day in around 35-45 minutes. Roasting the vegetables the night before would work great as well.

Here's what I do.. Buy the no boil lasagna noodles, they're a great time saver! You will need, meat sauce, mozzarella and parmesean cheese,ricotta cheese and an egg. Layer as follows: on the bottom of your baking dish put a layer of sauce, then the uncooked lasagna noodles, and finally a layer of the ricotta, mozzarella and egg mixture, sprinkle with parmesean and some mozzarella. Repeat until you have the desired amount. Cooking time approx 1 hour. (preheat oven to temp on back of the lasagna box.)

9 lasagna noodles
1 jar spaghetti sauce
8 ounces cottage cheese
1 egg
3/4 cup parmesan cheese
3 cups mozzarella cheese, grated
In 13x9 pan, spoon a little of the sauce.
Place 3 lasagna noodles on the sauce.
Mix cottage cheese, egg, and parmesan cheese in a bowl.
Spread 1/3 of this over noodles.
Add 1/3 of the sauce.
Sprinkle with 1 cup mozzerella.
Now, add 3 more noodles, 1/3 more cottage cheese mixture, 1/3 more sauce.
Add 1 cup more mozzarella cheese.
One more time, do the layers.
Bake in 350* oven for about 1 hour.
Top should be light brown and bubbly.
or if you want a little more detailed :) and a bit more tasty
1 lb ground pork or ground sausage
1 lb ground beef
12 ounces canned tomato sauce
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
2 tablespoons fresh parsley or dried parsley, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 cup minced onions
1 pinch sugar
2 teaspoons dried basil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 lb small curd cottage cheese
1/2 lb ricotta cheese
3 eggs
1 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 (16 ounce) package dry lasagna noodles
1 lb mozzarella cheese
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Brown pork OR sausage and beef in a dutch oven or similar large, deep skillet.
Once meat is browned, add tomato sauce, crushed tomatoes, 1 tablespoon parsley.
Add garlic, oregano, onion, sugar, basil and salt.
Reduce heat to medium-low and let sauce simmer for 30 minutes.
Give it a good stir every 5 minutes or so.
In a large bowl, combine cottage cheese, ricotta cheese, eggs, Parmesan cheese, 1 tbsp parsley, salt and pepper.
Cover the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish with a thin layer of sauce followed by 1 or 2 layers of uncooked lasagna noodles; Assemble the remainder in the following sequence: cheese-egg mixture, sauce, mozzarella cheese (sliced or shredded), noodles; repeat layers ending with a layer of noodles covered with a thin layer of sauce and some shredded mozzerela.
Cover with aluminum foil and bake in preheated oven for 30-40 minutes .
Remove foil, cover top with more mozzerella and grated parmesan.
Bake for another 5-10 minutes .
Remove from oven and let stand for 10 minutes before cutting.
NOTE: When assembling the lasagna, we use medium- thick slices of mozzerella rather than shredded.
Either works great, the sliced cheese just seems to add a little extra"cheesiness.
"We use shredded for the mozzarella topping that is applied at the end
