To celebrate the Friends reunion, I thought it would fun to do a Friends inspired recipe! Whip up a batch of these tasty mini lasagna bites while you watch the cast of Friends get back together finally! And when you're done, watch one of my favorite episodes that inspired this recipe, "The One with the Dozen Lasagnas"!
Equipment
MINI MUFFIN TIN
Ingredients
6LASAGNA NOODLESPRE COOKED & COOLED
1CUPPASTA SAUCE
8OZRICOTTA CHEESE
12FRESH MOZZARELLA PEARLS
COOKING SPRAY
OLIVE OIL
SALT
PEPPER
DRIED BASIL
Instructions
After your noodles have cooled off, cut them into quarters. I like using scissors for this!
Spray your mini muffin tin with a little cooking spray. Then put a little dollop of pasta sauce in the bottom.
Spoon a tablespoon of ricotta on the noodle and spread it out. Then roll it up and put it into the muffin tin.
Put another little spoonful of pasta sauce on top. Then, cut your mozzarella pearls in half & put them on top of the lasagna bites.
Drizzle a little olive oil on top & season with garlic powder, dried basil or oregano & pepper.
Bake at 425 for about 20 minutes or until the cheese has melted and starts to bubble. I like mine crispy (like the edges of the lasagna) so I leave them in a little longer until they start to brown.
