Ingredients
Method
- In a large skillet over medium heat, warm olive oil and sauté onion until translucent. Add garlic and cook 1 minute more.
- Add sausage and ground beef, breaking into crumbles. Cook until browned, about 8 minutes. Drain excess fat.
- Stir in crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Simmer uncovered for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). In a bowl, mix ricotta cheese with egg, half the Parmesan, and a pinch of salt.
- Spread a thin layer of meat sauce in a 9×13-inch baking dish. Layer 4 noodles, half the ricotta mixture, one-third of mozzarella, and one-third of sauce. Repeat layers once more.
- Top with remaining noodles, sauce, mozzarella, and Parmesan. Cover with foil (sprayed with cooking spray to prevent sticking).
- Bake for 25 minutes covered, then remove foil and bake 20 more minutes until bubbly and golden.
- Let rest 15 minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh basil leaves.
