Step 1

1.) Preheat oven to 350.

Step 2

2.) Boil and cook lasagna noodles just shy of al dente by following the time recommended on the box or bag. Be sure to salt your water.

Step 3

3.) Once cooked, drain, place in a separate bowl and drizzle with olive oil to prevent them from sticking together.

Step 4

4.) Take your bread loaf and cut it to size. I laid a lasagna noodle on top for sizing and cut about 1/2 inch above the lasagna noodle and also 1/2 inch below it leaving just a little bit of space on both sides. Cut the bread open but be sure you don’t slice it all the way through. Pull out any extra breading to make room for the lasagna you are about to build inside.

Step 5

5.) In a separate bowl mix 1/2 stick of butter with one bulb of roasted garlic cloves. Check out my recipe for roasting garlic to complete this step. If you don’t want to get too crazy just add some minced raw garlic to the butter. Pro-tip: I’d only add half the bulb if you go this route bc the garlic has a stronger flavor raw.

Step 6

6.)Spread garlic butter all over the inside of your gutted bread loaf.

Step 7

7.)Build your lasagna right on top of the butter starting with noodles first. I found that 1 whole noodle and 1 half noodle fit perfectly across the width of the bread. So I cut every other lasagna noodle lengthwise in half using my pizza cutter.

Step 8

8.)Top with a red sauce of your choice. I prefer meat sauce for this recipe. Mine was homemade. Then on top of the red sauce spread a layer of ricotta Béchamel (the recipe is on my page) and top that with a light dusting of shredded Parmesan and Mozzarella cheese.

Step 9

9.)Continue layering pasta, red sauce, Béchamel, and shredded cheese until you get the amount of layers you’d like. I did 7 layers.

Step 10

10.) Make sure your final layer has a heavier amount of cheese and sprinkle some garlic powder and dried parsley right on top.

Step 11

11.)Bake for 25-30 min. Until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is gooey and fully melted.
