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.
