Category: Recipes

9 lasagna noodles
2 (15 oz each) cans no-bean chili
1 (15 oz) container ricotta cheese
3 cups shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
3 scallions, thinly sliced, divided
1 (8 1/2 oz) can whole-kernel corn, drained
1 egg
1/2 tsp salt and pepper

Preheat the oven to 350. Coat a 13x9 inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Cook the lasagna noodles according to the pkg directions; drain.

Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, 2 cups Cheddar cheese, 2 sliced scallions, the corn, egg, salt, and pepper; mix well.

Spread 3/4 cup chili over the bottom of the baking dish. Place 3 lasagna noodles over the chili. Place half of the ricotta mixture evenly over the noodles then top with half of the remaining chili. Place 3 noodles over the chili then top with the remaining cheese mixture. Place the 3 remaining noodles over the cheese mixture then top with the remaining chili. Cover tightly with foil.

Bake for 30 minutes then remove the foil and sprinkle the lasagna with the remaining 1 cup Cheddar cheese. Bake for 10 more minutes. Remove from the oven, sprinkle with the remaining scallions, and let sit for 5 minutes before serving. Serves 6-8
