Ingredients
8 servings
- •0.5 pound ground pork
- •0.5 pound lean ground beef
- •0.5 cup minced onion
- •1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
- •1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
- •2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, divided
- •1 clove garlic, crushed
- •1.5 teaspoons dried basil
- •1.5 teaspoons salt
- •0.5 teaspoon dried oregano
- •0.125 teaspoon white sugar
- •1 (16 ounce) package lasagna noodles
- •1 pound small-curd cottage cheese
- •0.75 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- •3 large eggs
- •2 teaspoons salt
- •0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- •1 (16 ounce) package shredded mozzarella cheese
Instructions
- Combine pork and ground beef in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat; cook and stir until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Add onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, garlic, basil, salt, oregano, and sugar. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 30 minutes.
- While the sauce is simmering, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook lasagna noodles in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- While the noodles are cooking, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Mix cottage cheese, Parmesan cheese, eggs, remaining 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, salt, and pepper in a large bowl until combined.
- Assemble lasagna: Spread a spoon or two of sauce over the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish just to to coat it. Place two layers of noodles over the sauce to cover. Layer with 1/2 of the cheese mixture, 1/2 of the remaining sauce, and 1/2 of the mozzarella cheese. Repeat layers once more using the remaining noodles, cheese mixture, sauce, and mozzarella. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes. Remove the foil and bake until cheese is golden brown, 5 to 10 more minutes.
- Remove from the oven and let stand for 10 minutes before cutting and serving.
