Easter brunch lasagna is unique brunch lasagna. I came up with the recipe for a family gathering. Muffins and fresh fruit are all I add to nicely round out the meal. From Sarah Larson of La Farge Wisconsin.
Ingredients
1/2 cup butter
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
Dash white pepper
3 cups milk
1/4 cup finely chopped green onions
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
9 lasagna noodles, cooked and drained
2 cups diced fully cooked ham
1 package (16 ounces) frozen chopped
broccoli, thawed
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
3 cups (12 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese
4 hard-cooked eggs, finely chopped
Method
In a heavy saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in flour, salt and pepper until smooth.
Gradually add milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened.
Remove from the heat; stir in the onions, lemon juice and hot pepper sauce.
Spread a fourth of the white sauce in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. baking dish.
Layer with three noodles, half of the ham and broccoli, 3 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, 1 cup cheddar cheese, half of the eggs and a fourth of the white sauce.
Repeat layers. Top with the remaining noodles, white sauce and cheeses.
Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 40-45 minutes or until bubbly. Let stand for 15 minutes before cutting. Yield: 12 servings.
