This is a 'dairy' main meal for Passover that reheats well. Even the pickiest eaters love this easy lasagna recipe. Vegetables like mushrooms, zucchini, and peppers can be added; steam them al dente first and add them to the layers. Italian cheese blend can be used in place of mozzarella if desired.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 10 servings

  • 28 ounces ricotta cheese

  • 3 large eggs

  • 8 matzah sheets, or more as needed

  • 3 (32 ounce) jars marinara sauce (such as Classico Tomato and Basil)

  • 2 (16 ounce) packages shredded mozzarella cheese

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. Beat together ricotta cheese and eggs in a large bowl until well combined. Set aside.

  3. Briefly pass each matzah sheet under warm running water; layer moistened sheets on a plate.

  4. Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce in the bottom of a deep 11x15-inch baking dish; top with a layer of moistened matzah sheets, breaking pieces as needed to completely cover marinara. Spread a layer of ricotta mixture over matzah mixture. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over ricotta mixture layer. Repeat layering with remaining ingredients, ending with a layer of matzah, marinara, and mozzarella cheese, respectively.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is bubbling and browned, about 45 minutes.
