Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 12 ounces spicy Italian sausage, removed from casings and crumbled 2 large onions, halved and thinly sliced (4 cups) 1 to 2 bunches kale (1 1/2 pounds), thick stems removed 4 garlic cloves, minced Coarse salt and ground pepper 8 ounces lasagna noodles (about 9 noodles), each broken crosswise into 4 to 6 pieces 1 pint cherry or grape tomatoes, halved 3 cups part-skim ricotta cheese 1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a 5-quart pot, cook sausage over medium heat, stirring often, until browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in onions; cover, and cook until softened, 5 minutes. Uncover; cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Add garlic; cook 2 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl.

Add kale and 1/2 cup water to pot; season with salt and pepper. Cover; cook over medium-low heat, tossing occasionally, until tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain; coarsely chop. Transfer to bowl with onions.

Meanwhile, cook noodles 2 minutes less than package instructions. Drain; rinse under cold water.

Add noodles, tomatoes, and ricotta to the bowl; season with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Toss well. Pour into a 9-by-13-inch baking dish; smooth top with a spatula. Sprinkle with Parmesan. Bake until golden brown, about 40 minutes. Cool 10 minutes before serving.

Cook’s Notes The lasagna can be assembled up to 1 day ahead and refrigerated, covered tightly with plastic wrap; the cooking time will be the same.

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 2 stars       04/25/2018   There were some good ingredients, but the dish was extremely dry and if I had been served this in a restaurant, I would have sent it back. It needs more liquid, either broth or tomato sauce.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 5 stars       01/05/2014   I chopped a parsnip, a red pepper and added spinach to the kale . The flavors were great, my family loved it!  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 5 stars       09/14/2012   I really like this recipe. But it is very spicy if you make it with spicy Italian sausage, like they say. And I like spice. Last time I made it with half mild Italian sausage and half spicy but it was still too much, especially if I'm making it for people that don't like it. I think from now on I'll make it with mild and does not take away from the flavor. Also, one time I made it with frozen mustard greens instead of fresh kale and while it was good, fresh kale is best. Also works if frozen!
