Topping

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Boil Lasagna Noodles

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add lasagna noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and lay noodles flat on a clean kitchen towel to cool.

Meat Sauce

  1. 2

    Cook Meat

    In a large skillet over medium heat, add ground beef and Italian sausage. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon, about 8-10 minutes.

  2. 3

    Add Vegetables

    Add chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.

  3. 4

    Add Tomatoes and Seasoning

    Stir in crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, oregano, basil, salt, and black pepper. Simmer on low heat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Cheese Mixture

  1. 5

    Mix Cheese Ingredients

    In a medium bowl, combine ricotta cheese, egg, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, and chopped parsley. Mix until well combined.

Assembly

  1. 6

    Layer Ingredients

    Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). In a 9x13 inch baking dish, spread a thin layer of meat sauce on the bottom. Place 3 lasagna noodles over the sauce. Spread half of the cheese mixture over the noodles, followed by a layer of meat sauce. Repeat the layers, finishing with a final layer of noodles and meat sauce on top.

  2. 7

    Add Toppings

    Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese and grated Parmesan cheese over the top of the lasagna.

Baking

  1. 8

    Bake

    Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil (to prevent sticking, spray the foil with cooking spray). Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 25 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.

  2. 9

    Rest and Serve

    Remove from the oven and let the lasagna rest for 15 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your delicious Prime Lasagna!
