Ingredients

Cheese

Look for the Proudly Wisconsin Badge when shopping for cheese. Any brand of Wisconsin Fresh Mozzarella or Young Cheddar can be used in this recipe.

Instructions

  1. Cook sausage in a large skillet over medium heat until meat is no longer pink. Remove sausage to paper towels to drain.
  2. Heat grill to medium-high.
  3. Place 1 noodle onto four greased double-thickness pieces of aluminum foil, each about 16 x 12 inches. Drizzle each noodle with 1 tablespoon water. Layer each with 2 slices mozzarella, salt, pepper and 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes. Sprinkle each with an eighth of the sausage, 1/4 cup tomatoes, 1/2 cup spinach and 1/4 cup cheddar. Season with salt and pepper. Repeat layers. 
  4. Top with remaining noodle; drizzle each with 1 tablespoon water. Sprinkle with remaining cheddar. Fold foil into packets and seal tightly.
  5. Grill packets, covered, over medium-high heat for 10 minutes. Flip packets; grill, covered, for 10-15 minutes longer or until noodles are tender. Meanwhile, combine the remaining tomatoes, basil and olive oil in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Remove packets from the grill. Let stand for 5 minutes. Take care when opening the foil; allow the steam to escape. Serve lasagna with tomato salsa.

Recipe Tips

We tried this recipe with Barilla Oven-Ready Lasagna noodles. The size of each noodle was approximately 7 x 3 1/2-inches.
| To bake the foil packets: Prepare the recipe as directed. Bake at 400˚F for 20-25 minutes or until noodles are tender.
