1) Mushroom Ragu Lasagna. Made from scratch with spinach pasta sheets. You won’t believe this is a meatless lasagna. Made using a variety of fresh and dried mushroom for that incredibly tasty reduced ragu flavour.
This recipe is totally made from scratch but of course you can cut corners. Buy ready made pasta sheets and use a food processor. Most of the effort goes into the ragu, and by using a food processor, the mushroom ragu can be made in 15 minutes, plus cooking time. You can make the bechamel in 15 minutes or less. When baking, you may need a little longer depending on your oven. Crispy edges are delicious but don’t over cook it unless you want to eat it all straight away. Otherwise it can be over crispy once reheated. Once cooled and refrigerated, slice it up and make portions, reheat in oven from cold for about 30 minutes. The corners will be crispy and delicious. Enjoy my spinach lasagna with mushroom ragu.

2) Spinach Cannelloni. This recipe uses spinach and ricotta and is one of the most popular of cannelloni with its creamy filling and oozy mozzarella cheese. It’s made using three different styles of cheeses, Mozzarella, Parmesan and ricotta. Cannelloni refers to a cylindrical style of pasta dish. The pasta is filled with a filling and covered in sauce. To save time and make life simple, you can buy pre-made cannelloni cylinder shape pasta or use fresh bought lasagne sheets and then roll them up. It’s best to first blanch any dry pasta in water for a few minutes. For this recipe I’m using fresh lasagne sheets (noodles) made with whole-wheat flour. Fresh pasta only needs one minute cooking.

3) Chicken Mushroom Lasagna, Breaking the rules!
Any chicken or lasagna lovers will love this recipe. Yes I know, I am breaking some traditional rules, but when something tastes so good, why not. You could buy ready made lasagna sheets (noodles). You could also use a kitchen food processor to chop all your vegetables and probably only have 30 minutes of preparation time. Now if you’re a passionate cook like me, then making your own pasta is absolutely worth it. I added chopped parsley to mine for extra freshness and a little more excitement than just plain pasta. (I doubled the recipe in the video as I always like to make extra for another day). I also prefer to use real chicken pieces rather than dried ground (minced) chicken. Slice the chicken by angling your knife blade 20 or 30 degrees, to create larger slices, but keep them as thin as you can. Make sure you caramelise the chicken (brown them) just a little on each piece for extra flavour. I find that three layers are enough, but if you have an extra deep dish, why not go another layer. Leave to rest 30 to 45 minutes before serving.

4) Cheesy Lasagne Spinach & Basil Rolls. Made with simple fresh ingredients, these cheesy lasagne taste incredible. If you love cheese and Italian flavours, then you need to make these. You can buy the lasagna sheets or make your own, but make sure you don’t buy the “no boil” ones as they won’t work. Buy the driest ricotta cheese you can find, usually in baskets, not those wet ones in tubs. If you can’t find it, place in a sieve and simply drain it in the fridge overnight. These can be made in advance, and taste even better the next day.

5) Three Cheese Lasagna. Made with fresh ricotta cheese and Italian sausage. This version has four layers of meat and uses fresh ricotta cheese instead of white sauce. With fresh basil and Italian sausage it takes it to another level. It’s fantastic dinner party food as once the work is done, you simply reheat the dish and serve square portions.

6) Mac and Cheese With two Italian Cheeses. If you’re a Mac & Cheese lover, this will be your new go to recipe! It has two types of Italian cheeses, for a tasty creamy pasta and a cheesy buttery top. Mac and cheese never existed in Italy, but certainly pasta and cheese did. Instead of macaroni I used penne pasta, so I suppose it should be called PEN and CHEESE!
