Ingredients

12 lasagna noodles
1 pound ground beef
1 pound Italian sausage
2 cups ricotta cheese
1 egg
3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
2 cups marinara sauce
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cook lasagna noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef and Italian sausage. Cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
Stir in the marinara sauce, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper into the meat mixture. Let it simmer for a few minutes.
While the meat sauce simmers, in a bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, egg, salt, and pepper to make the cheese mixture.
To assemble the lasagna, spread a layer of meat sauce on the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Place 4 lasagna noodles over the sauce, followed by half of the ricotta mixture, a third of the mozzarella cheese, and a layer of meat sauce. Repeat the layers, finishing with noodles and topping with remaining meat sauce.
Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheese on top.
Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
Let it cool for 10-15 minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy!

Your homemade lasagna is now ready to be devoured! With its savory layers and cheesy goodness, it’s bound to become a favorite for family dinners or gatherings with friends. Happy cooking!
