Easy Beef and Vegetable Lasagne Recipe

Here’s a great recipe to add to your bag of tricks! This super easy beef and vegetable lasagne recipe can be made with pre-packaged sauces and frozen veggies for a busy-mum version, or if preferred you can make the sauces from scratch and chop fresh vegetables yourself. Whatever works for you!

I actually did a half and half when I made it – I forgot to grab a jar of béchamel at the shops so I made mine from scratch but used a jar of pasta sauce. Still super easy!

Serves: 4
Prep time: 20 minutes
Cook time: 45 minutes
Difficulty: EASY

Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 brown onion, chopped finely
500gms beef mince
2 cups mixed fresh or frozen vegetables – carrot, red capsicum, mushrooms, snow peas, beans, zucchini, baby spinach, broccoli, cauliflower, pumpkin, peas, corn etc
1 jar pasta sauce (or make it yourself with two tins of tomatoes, 2 tablespoons of tomato paste, 1 teaspoon of dried herbs and 1 beef stock cube)
1 jar béchamel sauce (or make it yourself with 60g butter, ¼ cup plain flour, 2 cups milk)
2 cups grated tasty cheese
1 packet fresh or dried lasagne sheets

lots of easy, basic everyday ingredients. I got the fresh lasagne sheets for half price on special – yay!

Method:
1. Preheat oven to 180°C
2. Saute onion and garlic in olive oil until softened. Add mince and brown, breaking up with a spoon until cooked.
3. Add vegetables and pasta sauce (or pasta sauce ingredients as noted in italics above), stir, then allow to simmer on medium-low for ten minutes.
4. Make your béchamel sauce or open a jar of pre-prepacked sauce, your call. (to make it, melt butter in a saucepan, then add flour and whisk to combine. After a couple of minutes, slowly add the milk while constantly stirring until thickened.)
5. Layer the elements like a traditional lasagne, starting with the meat mixture, then the béchamel, then the pasta, finishing with a layer of béchamel sauce. Sprinkle the top with grated tasty cheese and bake in the oven for 45minutes or until slightly browned and bubbling at the sides.
