How to Make 10 Lb Lasagna
- **Tomato Sauce:**
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large stockpot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
- Add 1 lb Italian sausage (removed from casings) and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned. Remove sausage and set aside.
- Add another tablespoon of olive oil to the pot. Sauté 1 large onion, diced, and 4 cloves garlic, minced, for 5 minutes until softened.
- Stir in 2 (28 ounce) cans crushed tomatoes, 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce, and the cooked sausage.
- Add 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, 1 teaspoon dried basil, 1 teaspoon sugar, and 1/2 cup red wine (optional).
- Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to low, and cook for 30-45 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sauce has thickened.
- **Ricotta Cheese Mixture:**
- In a large bowl, combine 15 ounces ricotta cheese, 8 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese, 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 4 ounces cream cheese (softened), 1/2 large onion (minced), and 1 teaspoon dried basil. Mix well.
- **Assembly & Baking:**
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large (9x13 inch) baking dish, layer 1/3 of the tomato sauce, then a layer of lasagna noodles (enough to cover the bottom).
- Spread 1/3 of the ricotta mixture over the noodles.
- Repeat layers twice more, ending with a layer of tomato sauce.
- Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheese over the top.
- Cover with foil and bake for 1 hour and 45 minutes.
- Remove foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until cheese is golden brown and bubbly.
- Let stand for 15-20 minutes before slicing and serving.
