Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Prepare lasagna noodles as directed on package and lay out in a single layer on waxed paper so noodles won’t stick together as they cool.
  2. Cook meat and onion in large pan until almost done – I like to slightly undercook the meat so it doesn’t dry out so much during the baking time.
  3. Reserve 2 cups spaghetti sauce and set aside; pour remaining sauce into the cooked meat/onion mixture and stir to blend. If I’m using a prepared spaghetti sauce rather than homemade, I like to add the additional seasonings of sugar and garlic powder, but this is optional – you do not have to add them, or add your own seasoning blend to personalize your sauce to your tastes.
  4. Prepare the ricotta filling by lightly beating the eggs, then add all other ingredients and stir to blend well.
  5. In the bottom of a lasagna pan (or a 9x13 pan), spread 1 cup of the reserved spaghetti sauce.
  6. Top sauce with a layer of cooked lasagna noodles.
  7. Spread 1/2 of ricotta cheese filling over noodles.
  8. Top with 1/2 of the meat sauce.
  9. Repeat layers: noodles, remaining ricotta filling, remaining meat sauce.
  10. End with a final layer of noodles spread with the remaining 1 cup of reserved spaghetti sauce.
  11. Cover with mozzarella cheese, then shaved parmesan cheese.
  12. Bake at 325 degrees for 60 to 75 minutes, until gently browned on top and bubbly.around the edges.
