Sometimes when I know we are going to have a busy week and there won’t be much time to make dinner… I like to make a meal I know I can just throw in the oven and have leftovers for the next night!!! Lasagna is one of those meals and my family gobbles up this recipe!!
Here is what you’ll need:
- 1 lb ground beef
- 4 Mild Italian sausage links
- 2 cans spaghetti sauce
- 8 lasagna noodles
- 16 oz ricotta cheese
- block of mozzarella cheese
- shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp. oregano
- 1 tsp. basil
- pepper
- minced garlic
- Boil your sausage links and slice them up… once they have cooled off a bit first!
- Cook your ground beef first and then add the sausage when the beef is almost done… cook for about 5 mins then add your garlic and cook another few more mins.
- Add your spaghetti sauce
- Boil your noodles and lay out on foil to cool
- Mix the ricotta, eggs, basil, oregano and pepper
- slice up your block mozzarella
- Fill the bottom of the pan with 1/2 of the meat sauce
- Cover with noodles
- Spread 1/2 of the ricotta mix on top of the noodles
- Place the sliced mozzarella cheese on top… then repeat the last two steps
- On top of the last layer of ricotta spread the shredded mozzarella followed by parmesan (if yours is filled to the top like mine… tuck down the edges a bit to help with the boil over!)
Bake 375 degrees covered with foil and on a cookie sheet for 55 minutes… Uncover and bake for another 15 minutes
Don’t forget to make up some Easy French Bread to go with!!

Hi Sandy, it looks good, but I would like to know if you beat the eggs and mix it with the ricotta, or are the eggs hard boiled?
I beat the raw egg into the ricotta!
