FOUR CHEESE LASAGNA
1 Onion
1 Green Bell Pepper
2 Sticks of Celery
4 Cloves of Garlic
1/4 Cup of Olive Oil
1 (12 oz) Can is Tomato Paste
2 (10 oz) Cans of Mild Rotel
2 (28 oz) Cans of Crushed Tomatoes
3 (15 oz) Cans of Tomato Sauce
1/4 Cup of Sugar
1 Tablespoon of Parsley Flakes
1 Teaspoon of Basil
2 Teaspoons of Salt
1 Teaspoon of Pepper
A dash of Red Pepper Flakes
3 Bay Leaves
2 Cups of Water
1 lb of Ground Beef
1 lb of Hot Blend Breakfast Sausage
1 Teaspoon of Cajun Seasoning
1 Teaspoon of Garlic Powder
1 (1/2 lb) Block of Provolone
1 (1/2 lb) Block of Havarti
1 (1/2 lb) Block of Mozzarella
1 Small Container of Grated Parmesan
1 Package of Lasagna Noodles
BECHAMEL
1 Stick of Butter
1/2 Cup of Flour
4 Cups of Milk
1 Teaspoon of Salt
1 Teaspoon of Pepper
Start out by heating a large pot over medium heat.
Chop the onion, bell pepper, and celery.
Add the 1/4 cup of olive oil to the heated pot.
Add the onion, bell pepper, and celery.
Sauté for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, chop the garlic.
After 10 minutes, add in the tomato paste and garlic. Sauté for another 10 minutes.
After, add in the Rotel tomatoes, and sauté for another 5 minutes. Towards the end of sautéing, use a large fork to smash the tomatoes.
Next add the crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, sugar, parsley, basil, salt, pepper, crushed red pepper flakes, bay leaves, and blend evenly.
Next add the two cups of water, but add it to the tomato cans, so that you can get up any tomato or sauce left in the cans.
Raise your heat to where you see a slight boil, cover, lower to simmer, and let cook for 2 hours. Stir every 20 minuets.
During this time, shred the cheeses into 3 separate bowls.
At about the 1 hour mark, start heating a large pan off to the side.
Preheat the oven to 350°
Add a small amount of oil to the pan, and brown the ground beef and breakfast sausage.
Season the meat with the Cajun Seasoning and Garlic Powder.
Once the mixture is brown and crumbly, drain, and set off to the side.
Wipe down your pan really good, you will use it to make the Bechamel.
Put than pan back over the heat.
Add the stick of butter to the pan.
Once the butter has melted, blend in the 1/2 cup of flour. Continue blending until you have a smooth, blonde or tan color roux.
During this process, you want to heat the milk.
Once you’ve reached a blonde roux, blend in the warm milk a little at a time.
After all the milk has been added, and you have a creamy white gravy, add the salt, pepper, and blend evenly.
If you’re at the two hour mark of your sauce, turn all your fires off and begin fixing the lasagna.
In an 8 x 11 inch baking dish you will add a bottom layer of sauce, a layer of raw lasagna noodles, another generous layer of sauce, a layer of beef mixture, three rows of bechamel over the beef, a sprinkle of Parmesan, and the shredded Provolone Cheese.
Next layer, start with raw noodles, and then repeat the same process leading up to the Havarti cheese, and then the Mozzarella cheese.
Cover with foil, and place in the oven for 30 minuets.
After 30 minutes, remove the foil, increase the temperature to 375°, and let cook for another 30 minutes.
When done, let sit for 10 minutes, use a knife and spatula to cut the first piece, and enjoy!
The Cajun Ninja can’t wait to try!
Felicity please let me know when you do!!
Can I substitute white gravy for ricotta I love ricotta cheese
I can't find a 8 x 11 pan any other size I can ise
How many does this serve? I’m feeding eight people.
The entire time I was watching I was thinking, I’m going to destroy my kitchen making this. When you zoomed out to show your wife’s face I swear I hollered with laughter. I don’t know if I have the energy to make this dish but it looks really good. Thanks for sharing.
This recipe is one of your hidden gems. Most people probably wouldn't think to look for a lasagna recipe from someone who specializes in cajun food, but this lasagna is absolutely incredible. In fact, I never even cared for lasagna before this recipe because I can't stand Ricotta cheese.
I made it for the first time right after you first posted the recipe, and it has been a family favorite ever since. We have dubbed it the "Bowman Family $100 Lasagna" due to the fact that I always end up buying the fanciest cheese to make it with lol!
My mom and I have been making THIS recipe for about 2 years, and I must say this is the absolute BEST lasagna recipe. I have never ever ever liked lasagna, but I have to beg her to make this lol. It's the only lasagna I'll eat! Thank you!!! 😍
Now you are pulling at my heart strings!!!! Lasagna, my all time favorite! Thanks ninja for the video. This is Brandi Abel😍😎
bradley abel Hey Brandi! You gotta try this!
Let me start out by saying I love your chopping skills… lol. My wife always makes the lasagna around the house, I'm never made it before. I'm definitely going to give your recipe a try, it looks really good.
Ray Mack's Kitchen and Grill ha, I appreciate that my dude! It takes some work! 😅
Let me know if you give this a try!
This dude is the real deal...he can cook. Don't be surprised to see him on TV one day. Very enjoyable content and never boring.
U da man Jack! Thanks for the support
Ninja! Holy crap...just made your four cheese lasagna and it was blow your mind great. Even my picky husband loved it cause he loves spicy! I am going to keep following you and making your stuff!!
Paula Otis 👊🏻👏🏻😁 way to go!! I’m proud of you!
Also ordered all your suggested spices! You totally crack me up and my son in Columbus, Ohio also follows you! You're the bomb!💣
Omg I really clicked on this one really fast tonight. Four cheese lasagna is one of my favorite Italian pasta dishes.Great video of your version of four cheese lasagna.😋💖
Louisa Lewis this is money! 😁👊🏻
I just need to say I make your lasagna every Sunday but my BFF begged me and now I need to make it again today. I just need to say thank you for the recipe its a super big hit in my home
I just tried this and all I can say is BEST LASAGNA EVER....me and my family love it....I will be trying more of your recipes❤️
I don't think you can improve on that recipe. Looks excellent. Liked everything about it. Damn good!👍😜
Thank you for the recipe. This is my family’s favorite lasagna! Please add a recipe for your Cajun ninja meatloaf.
I tried this recipe, I skipped the white sauce and I used Jimmy Dean Italian sausage instead. It was the best lasagna I've ever made. Thank you so much.
mzzken I’m sayin! 👊🏻
Made this tonight for dinner! My gosh it is amazing!
Tried this recipe tonight, it was really good. Thanks Cajun Ninja!
OMG Cajun Ninja can't wait to try that one out love that recipe keep on rocking brother😉🙏👍👌✌
I've always been too intimidated to try to make homemade lasagna...but I think I will give this a shot!
So good! Tried it today and everyone loved it!
I have made this Lasagna 3 times so far and my family LOVES it, so do I. The beshamel is even better than Racotta cheese in this. Thank you much, you have so many great recipes.
My pan is in the oven now. I can't wait to try some cajun lasagna. 🍽⚜ One of the best lasagnas I have had in a long time.
Another great looking dish!!! Will have to try this recipe!!!
A trick I use on the Tomato Paste is to open one end of the can completely and push the round top through the bottom. It pushes all the paste out Cajun Ninja. Lasagna looks awesome. Bet it tastes even better.
Masterlee 43 Lemme see you pull this off while holding a camera. 😏
Beat cooking Channel period! Thanks for sharing!
About to start making this recipe - I particularly like how you followed it up on another video regarding the freezing of left overs...that's always a fear when making these types of meals - love the lasagna but what to do with the leftovers? Now I know. Thanks Cajun Ninja!
New to your channel. Like the way you have fun while cooking. I’m going to make this tonight Chef Cajun Ninja.
I love your videos and your energy.

My Boy!! Lawwwd have mercy. Sooo good and I love the difference compared to a "traditional" italian lasagna. ❤❤👌👌🥇
This was so good! I changed it up a bit, but dang, this was SO good! 15:47
Only thing I add to this recipe is a trick from old Maw Maw! I like to use the 80/20 ground beef and take 5 or 6 tbsps of the grease to add to the sauce 😃 gives it a nice sheen!
Man! The dishes being made in your house! Wish I was Cajun! Lol
Looks great !!! one of my fav dishes

Hello ,dang what a fantastic lasagna.did you just use regular lasagna noodles ? Not no boil kind
If so I have never tried that before looks like it worked well .Am guessing because of using a lot of that beautiful homemade sauce it cooked the noodles well .Thank you again and you have a lovely family....

I'm cooking this now following this vid
I love the way you do your vegetable and don't make people sit there and watch you cut up vegetable some people get on my nerves till I stop watching them
Johnnie Brown well you don’t have to worry about that here. 😏👊🏻
Where did you get your magnalite pots? Are the red pots you use enamel coated cast iron? I'm looking to invest in some good quality cookware
Hey Shannon! You can keep up with the cookware I use on my amazon influencer page. 😊👊🏻

I’m making this Tomorrow 😍
Amanda Collins 😁👏🏻 I’m excited to hear how it comes out!
How was it 👀
When u said the pasta had a bite, was that also saying to possibly boil first, just not as long, rather than starting with raw pasta?
Cynthia Epps oh no, pasta for traditional Italian dishes will have some bite, but it’s not so much that the pasta seems undercooked. Trussme there’s a lot of liquid in that sauce. The lasagna noodles will soak it up. 😊👊🏻
What can you use to replace the Harvarti cheese ? My Walmart stopped selling it 😣😒
Great video, love that you explain everything you're doing, this looks amazing, can't wait to try this and your seafood gumbo.
Wonda Bonda Thanks! 😁 I really appreciate you taking notice to this. 👊🏻
You can cook man!
How thick/tall is that pan the lasagna is in? I haven’t seen a pan like that before. I’m looking to try making this soon
I got acid reflux just watching this lol
Love your wife's reaction... Lol
Oh ya the lasagna looks yummy too!
On my way to the grocery store😋😋😋
I'm cajun Sicilian mix. I like pasta or lasagna cajun or Italian style or in between. There is overlap in cajun and Italian seasoning .
Tony’s and garlic powder - the only two essential seasonings.
Is he a Northridge terrier?
Recipe says 12 oz tomato paste, is that correct? Cause that little can i know is like 6oz. Plz clarify this for me cajun ninja?
Yes, you can buy it in a 12oz can, or two 6oz cans.
@@TheCajunNinja ty so much for your fast response, because i am right now doing that 10 min on it ! 😆
Interesting lasagna!!
AmyE4D change ya life good. 😋👊🏻

My mom taught me to line the bottom of my oven with aluminum foil...much easier clean up if you have a spill :-) Momma's ALWAYS right ....pi-yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh
BloozeDaddy I just take some tongs and wet paper towels while it’s hot. Wipes up easily. 😊👊🏻
