How to Make Killer Lasagna

1. Brown 1 lb Italian sausage and 1 lb ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess grease.
2. Add 1 large onion (chopped), 2 cloves garlic (minced), 28 oz can crushed tomatoes, 15 oz can tomato sauce, 1 tsp dried oregano, 1 tsp dried basil, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper, and 1-2 bay leaves to the skillet. Simmer uncovered for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. While the meat sauce simmers, prepare the cheese filling: In a medium bowl, combine 15 oz ricotta cheese, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1 egg, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, and 1/4 tsp salt.
4. Cook 1 lb lasagna noodles according to package directions. Drain and rinse with cold water; set aside.
5. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
6. Spread a thin layer of meat sauce in the bottom of the prepared pan. Layer with 1/3 of the noodles, breaking as needed to fit.
7. Spread half of the ricotta cheese mixture over the noodles, followed by half of a 15oz container of shredded mozzarella cheese, then top with 1/3 of the remaining meat sauce.
8. Repeat layers: noodles, ricotta mixture, mozzarella cheese, meat sauce.
9. Top with the remaining noodles and remaining mozzarella cheese.
10. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until bubbly and heated through.
11. Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting and serving. Enjoy!
