This is one of the simplest lasagna recipes in all of the lands. Whether you're elite at cooking, or just a noob starting off, it will work for everyone.
Couple notes: You will need an oven safe dish, and it should be around the 13x9 size. All of the prep you will need to really do is brown the ground beef (fresh, or thawed of course). You don't even have to cook the noodles first; making this recipe totally FTW!
The prep will take 8-15 minutes depending on how speedy you are in the kitchen. The bake is for an hour (45 minutes under foil, 15 minutes uncovered).
Mats:
1 lb ground beef (fresh or thawed)
1 egg. beaten
3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1 container of Ricotta cheese
1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese
1 jar spaghetti sauce.
1 cup water
1 box of lasagna noodles
Step 1: Start off by preheating your oven to 350 degrees. Then you will brown your ground beef in a skillet.
Step 2: While you're browning the beef, mix your egg and 1-1/4 cups of your mozzarella cheese, the Ricotta cheese and about 1/4 cup of your Parmesan cheese. Blend these all together, and then set them aside. You should have extra Mozzarella and Parmesan that will be used (Step 7) to cover the top of the lasagna.
Step 3: At this point your ground beef should be about done. When it's finished, drain the as much of the grease out of the meat as possible. Then return the meat to your skillet.
Step 4: Stir in the sauce. If you used a jar of sauce don't throw it out just yet! Instead, add the 1 cup of water to the empty jar, close the jar give it a good shake. Then add this to the meat mixture. If you chose to make your own Nubsauce, be sure to still add this cup of water to your mixture. This is what will be cooking your noodles.
Step 5: spread 1 cup of your sauce onto the bottom of the oven-safe dish. Top this with 3 uncooked noodles. Then layer the noodles with the cheese mixture you made. Finally, top the mixture with your ground beef sauce. Repeat this process for 2 more layers.
**Noodles-cheese mixture- meat sauce.** This is going to be your rotation. =)
Step 6. After you have finished doing Step 5 three times, you're going to finish by adding 3 more noodles, and the meat sauce to your lasagna.
Step 7. Take the remainder of the Mozzeralla and Parmesan cheeses that you divided and sprinkle them on top of everything.
Step 8. Cover with foil, and Bake for 45 minutes. After 45 minutes, you will want to remove the foil, and put the lasagna back in the oven for another 15 minutes to make the cheese bubbly.
After that 15 minutes you'll have yourself one tasty lasagna.

Nesingwary Stromboli
Okay, I figured that we had to come up with a recipe to use all the animals from the Nesingwary quest chains. I mean really, I cannot even count how many creatures I've killed for those guys on all my toons.
I must say that they sure are tasty as a Stromboli!
This Stromboli was made by a friend, and was delicious.
What you need:
6-8 slices of Ham (Black Forest Ham tastes awesome in this.)
10 slices of Salami
6 Slices of Provolone
1/2-1 lb Seasoned and browned ground beef (Season it like you would a meatball.)
Spicy Brown Mustard
**Optional: A little Parmesan Cheese and/or Mozzarella to top Stromboli
Pizza dough (homemade or store bought)
Dipping Sauce: A thick tomato sauce goes great with this!
Step 1. Season and brown your ground beef. This will take about 15 minutes on medium heat. Just stir to flip the meat occasionally.
Step 2. Preheat the oven to 350, and roll out your dough. Smear a little mustard on the surface. Leave about an inch of space from the edges, so that it doesn't squish out.
Step 3. Line with your meats. Check the image at the top of this entry if you're confused.
Step 3. Add the cooked ground beef.
Step 4. Roll your Stromboli. Think of a jelly roll, replicate this idea. Pinch the edges together. Brush with a little olive oil, and add the cheese topping.
Step 5. In an oven-safe pan, bake at 350 for approximately 25-35 minutes. When the Stromboli crust is nice and golden brown, it is finished.
Let cool for about 5 minutes before slicing.

My Favorite Ravioli
Undecided if you like meat or cheese raviolis better? Don't choose! Mix them together! This is a carb-fest that is so good that when you brag about it on vent, your guildies will be jealous, even if they deny it!
This is a great dinner to make when you're running a bunch of dungeons, and need long periods of time to focus on things other than your dinner!
What you need:
1/2 bag of frozen cheese ravioli
1/2 bag of frozen meat ravioli
1.5 cups of sauce (the Nubsauce is great here!)
2 Pinches of Shredded Mozzarella
Parmesan Cheese (to taste)
Pinch of oregano
Really, if you can boil water then you can make this dish.
Step 1. In a large pot (for spaghetti or soup) fill 2/3 of the pot with water. Shake in a little salt. This will take approximately 15 minutes.
Step 2. Boil.
Step 3. Add in the raviolis and reduce the heat to medium (cover). These will cook for about 15 minutes.
Step 4. Drain the water and add the sauce to the ravioli.
Step 5. Stir, and put onto the plates. Add the cheeses and oregano to flavor.
**This will make a ton of ravioli, so if it is just you use half the amount of raviolis.

Grizzly Frontier Special! Aka Western Style Omelet
The incredibly edible egg gone western! When a cold meal won't cut it, eggs offer quick protein replenishment. In about 5 minutes you can enjoy this creation.
What you need:
3 eggs
1/4-1/3 of a Green Bell Pepper chopped
1/4 medium sized onion chopped
2 Slices of Ham (thickly sliced from the deli—approximately 1/4 inch thick) chopped into cubes.
1 teaspoon of olive oil
1 slice or 2 pinches of shredded cheddar or Pepperjack cheese (optional)
**salt and pepper to taste
Step 1. Heat your pan when you're are beating the eggs (add a small splash of milk or water to your eggs while you beat them).
Step 2. Grill the ham and veggies in the olive oil.
Step 3. Add the grilled ham and veggies to the eggs. Beat a few times so that they are more evenly distributed into the eggs.
Step 4. Turn the heat down to medium. Pour the egg mixture into the pan and let the first side cook. Flip. If you want to try with a little cheese, add this now to the cooked side and cover the pan to melt the cheese.
Do not leave the lid on for more than a minute or two, or the condensation can make your eggs a little watery.
Step 4. When the bottom side of your omelet is cooked, use the spatula to fold the omelet in half and remove from the pan.
Like it spicy? Add some cracked red pepper to give this omelet a bite, or a little cayenne pepper to make it roar!
