Add in the rest of the sauce ingredients and simmer while cooking noodles.
-
5
Depending on what size pan you will put the lasagna in will determine the number of noodles to cook.
-
6
To determine how many, lay the uncooked noodles in the bottom of your pan (a 9x13 inch will use 4 noodles for each layer).
-
7
Then cook sufficient for 3 layers, plus 1 or possibly 2 extra to allow for breakage.
-
8
Add in one noodle at a time to boiling water.
-
9
Push noodle over on its side, then add in the next noodle.
