Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 (29 ounce) can diced tomatoes
  • 2 (6 ounce) cans tomato paste
  • 12 dry lasagna noodles
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1 pint part-skim ricotta cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons dried parsley
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 pound mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

  1. In a skillet over medium heat, brown ground beef, onion and garlic for 5 minutes; drain fat.
  2. Mix in basil, oregano, brown sugar, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, diced tomatoes and tomato paste. Simmer for 30 to 45 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil.

  6. Layer 1/3 of the lasagna noodles in the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  7. Cover noodles with 1/2 ricotta mixture, 1/2 of the mozzarella cheese and 1/3 of the sauce.
  8. Repeat. Top with remaining noodles and sauce. Sprinkle additional Parmesan cheese over the top.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven 30 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
  10. Enjoy! 🙂

Footnotes

If lasagna has been refrigerated, bake for 45 minutes. We found that covering the lasagna with aluminum foil and baking for 1 hour, then removing the foil and and baking for an additional 20 minutes produced the best result.


Tip

Aluminum foil helps keep food moist, ensures it cooks evenly, keeps leftovers fresh, and makes clean-up easy.
