Guacamole

Cerignola olives marinated in garlic rosemary olive oil

Olives

Layers of noodles with bolognese sauce, ricotta, Parmesan and mozzarella cheeses

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, carrot, and celery. Sauté until the vegetables are softened, about 5-7 minutes.

Cook the Vegetables

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon, about 8-10 minutes.

Add Garlic and Meat

Stir in the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, oregano, basil, salt, pepper, and red wine. Bring to a simmer and cook uncovered for 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Incorporate Tomatoes and Seasonings

In a bowl, mix together the ricotta cheese, egg, chopped parsley, and salt until well combined.

Combine Ingredients

Preheat the Oven

In a baking dish, spread a layer of bolognese sauce on the bottom. Place 3 sheets of lasagna noodles over the sauce. Spread half of the ricotta mixture over the noodles, followed by a layer of bolognese sauce. Sprinkle with half of the grated Parmesan and half of the shredded mozzarella.

Layer the Ingredients

Repeat the layering process: noodles, ricotta, bolognese sauce, Parmesan, and mozzarella until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of bolognese sauce topped with the remaining mozzarella and Parmesan.

Repeat Layers

Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.

Bake the Lasagna

Remove the lasagna from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.
