Classic Beef Lasagna

My friends at Red Gold Tomatoes must have known that I’m freezing my tookus off and needed something really warm and filling for dinner. They sent me tomatoes, lasagna noodles and recipes for classic beef lasagna so I could have something that will get me through this bitterly cold week.  They even included a coupon (the type that would make those extreme coupon gals really jealous) for Laura’s Lean Beef.  Score! 

Even bigger score…you can enter to win a Le Creuset Lasagna pan on the Red Gold Facebook page.  I’m really hoping I win because I count the effort of hefting a Le Creuset pan in and out of the oven as a work out.  That effort alone cancels out the lasagna calories.

Before setting off to make your own tasty classic beef lasagna…make sure to put your lasagna pan on a baking sheet.  My oven would be even more dirty if I hadn’t had the foresight to put my pan on a pan.
