Instructions
  1. Cook pasta 1 min. less than directed on package. Drain; set aside.
  2. Heat oil in large pot on medium-high heat. Add sausage; cook 3-4 min. or until done, using wooden spoon to break up large pieces.
  3. Reduce heat to medium; add onions, carrots and celery. Cook 5-6 min. or until onions are translucent, stirring frequently. Add garlic; stir 30 sec. Stir in sauce, broth and beans. Simmer 10 min. or until vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally. Add pasta; cook 1-2 min. until heated through. Top with cheese and parsley before serving.
Recipe Notes

To freeze, keep pasta separate as it will continue to absorb liquid in the soup.

Plant-based sausage is usually sold in the meat department or frozen aisle of the grocery store.

Instructions
  1. Heat oil in large pot on medium-high heat. Add sausage; cook 8-10 minutes or until browned, breaking up large chunks with wooden spoon. Drain; return meat to pot. Add onions; cook 3-4 minutes or until softened. Stir in sauce and water; bring to a simmer. Remove pot from heat.
  2. Combine ricotta, Parmesan, garlic, eggs and basil in medium bowl.
  3. Spread 1 cup sauce mixture in a 6 or 7-quart slow cooker insert sprayed with nonstick spray. Top with 4 noodles, breaking noodles and overlapping to fit. Top with dollops of 1 cup ricotta mixture, 2 cups sauce mixture and 1/2 cup shredded cheese. Repeat layers 3 times.
  4. Cook on LOW 4 hours or until noodles are tender and most liquid is absorbed. Remove insert from slow cooker. Let stand 10-15 minutes before cutting to serve.
Recipe Notes

Tips:

Substitute ground beef or turkey for the sausage. Or, for a meatless version, substitute 2 pounds sliced white or cremini mushrooms.

No need to turn on the oven to make this hearty lasagna. The extra liquid in the recipe allows the noodles to cook perfectly while the flavors blend.

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Slice eggplant longways into 1/4-inch slices. Sprinkle with salt. Let sit for 10 minutes to drain excess water. Pile eggplant slices in an 8x8 oven-safe baking dish.

Add mushrooms and cook another 5 minutes, until excess liquid from mushrooms has evaporated. If using ground beef, add the onion and mushroom mixture to the ground beef. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Stir Ricotta and egg together until fully combined. Coat one side of each eggplant slice with Ricotta. Add onion and mushroom mixture, then roll up.
  5. Wipe out your 8x8 baking dish, then coat the bottom with sauce. Add eggplant rolls, then coat with remaining sauce. Sprinkle with shredded Mozzarella. Bake covered for 50 minutes. Remove cover and bake for 10 minutes more.

Spicy Beef & Chorizo Grilled Pizza
Instructions

  3. Combine oil and garlic in small bowl; brush onto both sides of pizza crusts. Working with 2 crusts at a time, grill top-side down, 1-2 min. or until lightly browned.
  4. Reduce heat to medium; carefully flip crusts over with tongs. Top each with ¼ of the sauce mixture and Chihuahua cheese. Grill 2-3 min. or just until cheese is melted. Carefully slide finished pizzas onto large cutting board or platter. Repeat with remaining crusts and toppings.

Mexican chorizo is a highly seasoned raw sausage, different from the cured, ready-to-eat Spanish-style chorizo.

Substitute shredded Mozzarella or Monterey Jack cheese for the shredded Chihuahua cheese.

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
  2. Cook shells 2 min. less than directed on package.
  3. Meanwhile, heat oil and garlic in large skillet on medium heat 1-2 min. or until garlic begins to sizzle. Add greens; cook 1-2 min., tossing frequently until just wilted. Remove from heat; cool slightly. Stir in Ricotta, 1 cup shredded cheese, Parmesan and oregano.
  4. Drain shells; stuff each shell with a rounded tablespoon of cheese mixture. Spread ½ cup sauce onto bottom of 13x9-inch baking dish; top with shells and remaining sauce. Cover tightly with foil.
  5. Bake 20 min. Top with remaining shredded cheese. Bake, uncovered, 10-15 min. or until cheese is melted.
Recipe Notes

Tips:

Substitute Tuscan kale, mustard greens or collard greens for the Swiss chard. You can also find some of these greens in the freezer section of your grocery store. Thaw, drain and squeeze out any excess liquid before using as directed.

To easily fill shells, place the cheese filling in a resealable plastic bag. Cut off a small corner of the bag and use to pipe filling into shells with easy clean-up!

Shells can be stuffed and assembled ahead of time. Cover and refrigerate up to 24 hours. When ready to serve, add an additional 10 min. to the covered bake time.
