Provided by Diana Rattray

Categories     Entree     Dinner

Time 1h35m

Number Of Ingredients 27

For the Alfredo Sauce:
8 ounces butter
1 1/2 cups whipping cream
White pepper to taste (freshly ground)
1 1/2 cups Parmesan cheese (fresh grated)
For the Ricotta Mixture:
2 cups ricotta cheese
1/3 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
3/4 cup mozzarella cheese (shredded)
2 tablespoons green onions (sliced)
2 teaspoons fresh parsley (chopped)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1 1/4 cups Alfredo sauce (prepared)
For the Vegetables:
4 cups mushrooms (sliced)
2 cups carrots (chopped)
1 cup onion (chopped)
1 tablespoon butter
2 cups bell peppers (red, chopped or sliced)
1 cup bell pepper (green, chopped or sliced)
2 cups zucchini (sliced)
4 cups broccoli (florets)
12 to 15 lasagna noodles (see the first paragraph of the instructions)
18 slices mozzarella

Steps:

  • Lay out enough dry lasagna noodles in a 9 x 13-inch baking pan to ensure you have enough to make 3 full layers, with very little overlap on each layer. Remove the dry strips and cook according to package instructions until just tender; drain.
  • Alfredo Sauce - Heat water to a boil in the bottom of a double boiler . Add butter, cream, and pepper to the top pan and place over the simmering water until butter is completely melted; stir in Parmesan until melted and blended in. Turn off heat and remove top pan; set aside to cool. Measure 1 1/4 cups of the sauce; set aside. Put the remaining sauce in a container and keep refrigerated until close to serving time.
  • Ricotta Filling - In a bowl, combine ricotta cheese, 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese, 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella, 2 tablespoons green onions, 2 teaspoons of chopped parsley, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon pepper, 1/4 teaspoon each basil and oregano, and 1 1/4 cups of cooled prepared Alfredo sauce. Blend well. Set aside.
  • Heat the oven to 375 F.
  • Vegetables - In a heavy skillet, sauté mushrooms, carrots, and 1 cup of chopped onions in 1 tablespoon butter until just tender-about 8 to 10 minutes. Add red and green bell pepper, zucchini, and broccoli; toss to mix well.
  • Assembly - Grease bottom and sides of a 9 x 13 x 2-inch baking dish. Lay out 4 cooked lasagna strips to cover the entire bottom of the baking pan. Spread 1 1/4 cups of the ricotta mixture evenly over the strips. Top with half of the vegetable mixture and spread out evenly. Cover the vegetable layer with 9 slices of mozzarella cheese. Repeat this layering. Top the second layer of mozzarella slices with lasagna strips and spread them evenly with 1 1/4 cups ricotta cheese mixture to finish.
  • Grease or spray a sheet of foil with vegetable spray and cover the baking dish tightly with the foil sprayed side down.
  • Bake the lasagna for about an hour, or until the internal temp registers 165 F on an instant-read thermometer. Remove from the oven and let stand for 5 minutes, covered, before cutting and serving.
  • Heat reserved Alfredo sauce and spoon a little over each serving.

ALFREDO LASAGNA WITH BROCCOLI AND CAULIFLOWER



Alfredo Lasagna with Broccoli and Cauliflower image

A creamy Alfredo-type sauce binds layers of pasta, vegetables, and cheeses in this vegetarian lasagna. No tomatoes allowed!

Yield Serves 8; 3/4 to 1 cup per serving

Number Of Ingredients 20

Cooking spray
2 1/2 cups fat-free milk
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne (optional)
1/4 cup shredded or grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup fat-free ricotta cheese
1/4 cup egg substitute or 1 large egg
1 teaspoon dried oregano, crumbled
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
4 cups water (if using fresh vegetables)
2 cups chopped fresh (1/2-inch pieces) or frozen cauliflower, thawed if frozen
2 cups chopped fresh (1/2-inch pieces) or frozen broccoli, thawed if frozen
4 oven-ready lasagna noodles, broken in half crosswise
1/4 cup roasted red bell pepper, chopped
1/2 cup shredded low-fat mozzarella cheese and 1/2 cup shredded low-fat mozzarella cheese, divided use
1/4 cup plain dry bread crumbs (lowest sodium available)
2 teaspoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning, crumbled

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly spray a 2-quart casserole dish with cooking spray. Set aside.
  • In a medium saucepan, whisk together the sauce ingredients except the Parmesan. Cook over medium-high heat for 4 to 5 minutes, or until the mixture thickens slightly (it will still be somewhat thin), stirring occasionally.
  • Stir in the Parmesan. Remove from the heat. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together the ricotta, egg substitute, oregano, onion powder, and garlic powder. Set aside.
  • If using fresh cauliflower and broccoli, in a medium saucepan, bring the water to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium high and cook the cauliflower for 2 minutes. Stir in the broccoli. Cook for 1 minute. Transfer to a colander. Drain well.
  • Layer as follows in the casserole dish: half the sauce, 4 noodle halves, all the ricotta mixture, and the cauliflower and broccoli. Sprinkle with the roasted pepper and 1/2 cup mozzarella. Top with the remaining noodle halves, remaining sauce, and remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella. Cover the dish and place on a baking sheet in case the lasagna bubbles over.
  • Bake for 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together the topping ingredients. When the lasagna has baked for 30 minutes, sprinkle with the topping. Bake, uncovered, for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the topping is toasted and the noodles are tender. Remove from the oven and let stand for 5 to 10 minutes to make cutting easier.

RIGATONI AL FORNO WITH CAULIFLOWER AND BROCCOLI RABE



Rigatoni al Forno With Cauliflower and Broccoli Rabe image

This baked pasta - please don't call it a "pasta bake" - is a luscious affair, with two sauces. A creamy white béchamel is employed to toss with the pasta and vegetables. When it emerges, bubbly and bronzed and crisp on top, a bright, light tomato sauce adorns each serving. (If preferred, you can layer both sauces instead.) Putting it together is somewhat like building a lasagna - a bit of a fussy project - but once assembled, it's no trouble at all to bake and serve. Prepare it all several hours in advance, then pop it in the oven when you like.

Categories     dinner, pastas, main course

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 cups whole milk, or use half-and-half for a richer sauce
Kosher salt and black pepper
1/8 teaspoon grated nutmeg, or to taste
1 small bay leaf
3 cups canned tomatoes, whole or crushed tomatoes (from a 28-ounce can)
1 1/2 cups chopped onion, any kind
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 bay leaf or a few basil leaves
Kosher salt
Kosher salt
1 pound rigatoni
1 medium cauliflower, chopped (about 3 cups)
1 bunch broccoli rabe, chopped (about 3 cups)
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons finely chopped rosemary
1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
Black pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for greasing the pan
1 cup grated provolone (about 3 ounces), plus more for serving
1 cup grated Pecorino Romano (about 3 ounces), plus more for serving

Steps:

  • Make the béchamel: Put the olive oil and flour in a small saucepan over medium-high heat and whisk together. Let mixture sizzle without browning for 1 minute. Whisk in milk 1 cup at a time, letting it come up to a simmer and begin to thicken before adding the next cup. Repeat until all the milk has been added.
  • When the sauce has thickened to the consistency of a milkshake, turn heat to low. Add 1 teaspoon salt and a pinch of pepper. Add the nutmeg and bay leaf, and cook for 10 minutes, whisking occasionally. Check seasoning and adjust. Turn off heat and keep sauce warm. (If sauce thickens upon sitting, thin with a little more milk.)
  • Make the tomato sauce: In a small saucepan, put tomatoes, onion, garlic, olive oil, bay leaf or basil, and 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil, then turn down heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Transfer mixture to a blender (remove bay leaf before blending but leave in basil, if using). Purée to a velvety consistency and return to the saucepan. Taste and adjust seasoning. Keep sauce warm, or let cool and reheat before serving.
  • Make the pasta: Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Add the rigatoni and cook until nearly done, about 2 minutes less than package directions, leaving the pasta still quite firm. Lift pasta from the water with a spider or large strainer, and spread it out on a baking sheet to cool.
  • Add cauliflower to pot and cook until barely softened, 1 minute. Lift from the water with a spider or large strainer and spread out to cool on a baking sheet.
  • Add the broccoli rabe and cook until just wilted, 1 minute, then drain in a colander. Rinse with cool water, then squeeze into a ball.
  • Put cauliflower and broccoli rabe into the empty pasta pot. Add garlic, rosemary and red-pepper flakes, and stir together. Season with salt and pepper, and drizzle with 2 tablespoons oil.
  • Add the béchamel and the rigatoni. Mix well with the cauliflower and broccoli rabe. Add the provolone and Pecorino Romano, and mix well again.
  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. Pile the pasta mixture into an oiled 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Bake until nicely browned and crisp on top, about 40 minutes. Leave to rest for 10 minutes before serving. (Alternatively, refrigerate the assembled dish for up to 6 hours and bake later. Bring to room temperature before baking.)
  • To serve, put a large spoonful of pasta into individual bowls or plates, making sure each portion has some of the crisp top. Spoon some tomato sauce around each portion and sprinkle with more grated cheese.

Looking for something delicious, fast, and easy? This maybe a recipe of someone but I like to take credit for it because one night I decided to experiment! *You could create your own Alfredo sauce from scratch but I prefer to go the easy/semi-lazy route and buy a jar of premade Alfredo.
