Skillet Lasagna

Hello, Everyone! This is a quick and easy meal that does not take a lot of pre-planning or preparation. Just make a list prior to your next grocery trip and include the ingredient list items and they can be tucked away and brought back out when you are ready to impress your family and friends. This is also a meal that youth and adults can make. The best part is it is tasty and healthy! The lasagna noodles are whole wheat, the cheese is a low fat version, and the ground beef is lean. The health benefits with including green peppers to your meal is astonishing they have Vitamins, A, B, C, and Potassium. In addition, the tomato sauce also adds lycopene to our diets and vitamins A and C.

Can’t you just smell the aroma of the tomato sauce and seasoned beef, delicious! Also, picture in your mind the cheese melted all over the lasagna and some fresh green salad as the side dish. If you do not cook for a lot of people you can demonstrate safe food handling practices by putting the leftovers in small separate containers to enable them to cool quicker in the refrigerator. Also, it allows for you to have individual portion sizes. You can prepare this ahead of time and put it in the freezer. And remember to defrost in the refrigerator or microwave versus the dangerous counter top. You definitely do not want to risk anyone becoming sick from your meal. I hope you enjoy this meal as much as my family does!

Best Wishes,
Cassandra Coleman

I love home cooked lasagna, it's very heartwarming. You smell it, and you feel like you're really home!
Skillet lasagna or crock pot lasagna usually makes it to my menu when I'm craving for something fresh, homey, warm, and of course delish!
