Lasagna is one of my family’s favorite foods. It’s also one of those meals that gets made for a lot of special occasions, including Christmas Eve dinner. My mom made has made lasagna for Christmas Eve dinner for as long as I can remember, and it was always my number one requested birthday dinner, too.

As much as I love lasagna, I don’t make it all that often because it takes a little bit more time and effort to prepare. Maybe that’s why it’s always been reserved for special occasions. 😉

Just because I’m not always in the mood to make it, though, doesn’t mean I don’t crave it on the random Wednesday night. For all of you lasagna lovers out there, that is where this skillet lasagna swoops in to save the day! One pan, 30 minutes, six ingredients, and you’re set! I pretty much followed my mom’s lasagna recipe to make this skillet version, and I’m happy to say it’s delicious! If you have no-boil lasagna noodles, that would work best here, but I’ve made it with regular noodles and it just takes a few minutes longer for those to cook.

    There is nothing better than a big pan of lasagna but I do tend to make too much. This skillet lasagna is perfect for when you’re looking to feed a smaller crowd.

    I would make this for the kids! They love lasagna and I haven’t been able to get the oven clean lately so on the skillet it is. Thanks for the skillet lasagna recipe — worth trying this weekend.
