5 cheese lasagna recipe

Olive garden 5 Cheese Lasagna
Its gonna take about 2 hours to make all told, half that being the baking time. But its darn good and well worth the effort. This should serve 8-9 but at my house its more like myself and whoever manages to get there before I do!

Here is what you will need:

1 cup of lasagna noodles, spinach noodles are great if you can find them.
4 cups of shredded mozzarella
½ cup fontina cheese
2 cups Parmesan cheese (half for the filling and half to go on top just before you cook)
Marinara sauce to taste (preggo or ragu works fine for this)

For the filling:
3 eggs
¼ cup of sun dried tomatoes (in oil)
3 ½ cups of ricotta cheese
½ cup of romano cheese
1 tablespoon of garlic chopped fine
½ teaspoon of salt
1 teaspoon of pepper

For the sauce:
¼ cup butter
¼ cup flour
2 cups of milk

Ok so here's how to put it together:

1. Melt the butter over medium heat in a heavy saucepan.
2. Add the flour and stir till well blended; cook until frothy and light brown Tip: don't let it brown too much or the sauce will not thicken properly (more brown = less thickening power but more flavor)
3. Add the milk, stirring constantly with a whisk until the mixture comes to a simmer.
4. Cook until thickened (3-4 minutes) don't forget to stir! This will scorch very easily.
5. Remove from heat and chill it in the fridge while we make the rest of the dish.
6. In a large mixing bowl add the romano, ricotta and half of the parmesan cheese
7. Drain the oil and finely chop the tomatoes.
8. Chop up the garlic.
9. Add the tomatoes and garlic to the cheese mixture.
10. Add 1 and 1/2 cups of the chilled cream sauce and mix it until well blended.
11. Put it in the fridge to chill, reserving 1/2-cup for later use.
12. Cook your lasagna noodles as the package directs you to.
13. Now is a good time to preheat your oven to 350F
14. Once the lasagna has finished place a slightly overlapping layer in a 9x13 lightly oiled baking dish make sure it is about 2 inches deep or more.
15. Spread 1 ½ cups cheese filling over noodles. Sprinkle with 1 cup of mozzarella and half of the fontina cheese.
16. Add another layer of pasta and cheese then top with remaining three lasagna noodles.
17. Spread ½ cup of the reserved cream sauce over the top then sprinkle the remaining parmesan and cover lightly with foil.
18. Bake for 1 hour at 350F.
19. In the last 10 mins remove the foil so the cheese will brown up a bit.
