LASAGNA SUPREMO: (The Best Lasagna Ever!)
This is a recipe that I have been making for many decades, and everyone who has eaten my lasagna says that it is the BEST LASAGNA EVER!!! I have taken it everywhere, potluck suppers, church socials, family cook outs, I even put it in a contest once won 4th out of 200.
FOR THE LASAGNA
1 (1 lb) package lasagna noodles
3/4 lb ground beef
1/4 lb ground pork
1 lb Italian sausage (thinly sliced)
1 lb button mushrooms (thinly sliced)
1 cup onions (chopped)
6 cloves garlic (minced)
2 teaspoons sugar
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 eggs (lightly beaten)
2 (15 ounce) containers ricotta cheese
2 tablespoons dried parsley flakes
1 cup pitted ripe black olives (sliced)
1 lb mozzarella cheese (shredded)
1 cup parmesan cheese (grated)
FOR MARINARA SAUCE
2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans hunts chunky crushed tomatoes
2 (6 ounce) cans hunts tomato paste
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
6 cloves garlic (cut in halves)
1 teaspoon chopped garlic, in juice (from jar)
1 shallot (diced)
2 tablespoons dried oregano
4 tablespoons dried Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
8 servings
1 hour 45 minutes 45 mins prep
FOR THE LASAGNA:
Prepare lasagna according to package directions.
Drain and set aside.
Cook Italian sausage either in a skillet or by boiling in a pot of water, thinly slice crosswise and set aside.
Brown the ground beef and ground pork in a skillet, drain off and discard fat.
Add onion and garlic to the ground meat, stir and cook another 5 minutes.
Add the sugar, salt, basil, fennel seeds, pepper and the Marinara sauce and simmer for 20 minutes.
While the above mixture is simmering, combine in a large bowl the eggs, Ricotta cheese, and parsley.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Take a 13 by 9 inch baking dish and spray the bottom with a non-stick spray, such as Pam.
In the baking dish, spoon in a layer of 1/3 of the meat sauce.
Then layer 1/3 of the lasagna pasta (overlapping each strip of pasta with the other).
Then layer 1/3 of the Ricotta mixture.
Then layer 1/3 of the sliced olives and 1/3 of the sliced Italian sausage.
Then layer 1/3 of the sliced mushrooms.
Then layer 1/3 of the Mozzarella and 1/3 of the Parmesan.
Then continue to repeat the layering until all of the ingredients are layered.
When the layering is completed, cover with aluminum foil, making certain that the foil is not touching the top of the lasagna, and bake for 25 minutes.
Remove foil and bake, uncovered, another 25 minutes.
Remove from oven and allow to sit and rest 10 minutes before cutting.
FOR THE MARINARA SAUCE (by Alan Leonetti): Empty Hunts chunky crushed tomatoes and Hunts tomato paste into the pot.
Add the extra-virgin olive oil to the pot.
Slice the cloves of garlic crosswise into either halves or thirds or pieces, and dump them into the pot.
Dice the shallot, and dump that into the pot.
Add the rest of the ingredients, and stir to mix well with a large long handled wooden spoon.
Do not strain, as the pulp adds to make this a thick and wonderful sauce.
Cover and cook on medium heat, stirring every 10 minutes for about an hour or until it bubbles and is completely heated throughout.
Reduce heat to simmer, and continue to simmer, stirring every 10 or 15 minutes to keep from burning or sticking to the bottom of the pot for 1 or 2 hours.
Remove from heat and give it one last stir.
Serve over spaghetti, ravioli, pasta or use for chicken parmesan, or anything that calls for a Marinara sauce.

Homemade Lasagna Recipe with Meat
9 lasagna noodles
1 jar of pasta sauce (I prefer Prego)
1 lb. of ground beef
8 oz. mozarella cheese (I prefer PollyO)
16 oz. ricotta cheese
Parmesan/Romano Cheese (optional)
Slice the mozzarella cheese into thin slices using a cheese slicer.
Boil the lasagna noodles in a very large pot. You'll need 9 noodles per pan. I usually prepare a dozen in case some of them rip. That way I can be sure to use whole noodles. Once the noodles are cooked, run cool water through the pot until it is safe enough that you can pull the noodles out of the pot with your hands. You don't want to burn yourself.
While the Noodles are cooking, brown the pound of ground beef in a large skillet. You'll want to remove the cooked meat with a spoon with holes so that most of the fat will not go in the lasagna.
Once you have all the ingredients prepared, you are ready to construct the lasagna. The images above show this process step-by-step:
Pour a thin coating of sauce into the non-stick lasagna pan.
Now, add a layer of noodles.
On top of the noodles, you'll want to add half the ricotta cheese, a layer of mozzarella, half the meat, and some more sauce.
Repeat Step 2.
Repeat Step 3.
Repeat Step 2.
Now, add some more sauce, and top it with some more mozzarella cheese.
Cover the pan with foil. Be sure to use the shiny side of the foil on the inside.
Bake the lasagna at 350 degrees covered for one hour.
Allow the lasagna to cool, then slice it and enjoy.
The lasagna will taste even better the next day. As I mentioned above, it only takes a few minutes longer to bake two at a time, so I highly recommend that you do.

here's mine: (you know how many you'll feed, so you know how much you need of each)
Lasagna
Ground meat (turkey)
prego sauce (mushrooms is my fav)
Ricotta cheese
Parsley
Salt & Pepper
Motzarella, parmesano
1.brown the meat with your usual spices- Oregano makes it yummy! (no oil needed)
2. add about 2/3 a cup of the Prego sauce to the meat before done
3. drain the meat of fat
4. Layer the UNCOOKED lasagna in a baking pan. I know, uncooked. well try it- it WORKS! it doesn't fall appart
5. Chop some parsley in a bowl, or flakes if you use those.
6. Mix with the ricotta
-- now for the layering (assembling)---
Lasagna
Meat
Ricotta & parsley mix
Lasagna
Meat
Ricotta & parsley mix
Lasagna

*you get the idea
When you get to the top, cover the last layer of ricotta with a final layer of lasagna. Then add the rest of the prego, and cover the entire darn thing with the Motsarella.
Sprinkle a lil of the parmesano on top, and bake for about 40 mins at 350 deg.
phew! that made me hungry!

You can try www.allrecipes.com
I make mine with canned spaghetti sauce ( adding some garlic and meat), lasagne noodles, mozarella cheese, and velveeta cheese. Just cook noodles, brown meat and put sauce on it, slice the cheese, then layer in a casserole dish and bake at 350 till cheese is melted and it's hot, about 20-30 minutes.
It's not quite all homemade, but my family likes it. The velveeta makes it really rich.

My favorite is on the Skinner lasagne noodles box called:
Virginia's easy lasagne (from box)
or
New World Easy Lasagne (from website)
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Start to Finish: 1 hr 20 minutes
Ready in a flash, there's no need to pre-cook the lasagne noodles in this crowd-pleasing dish.
Ingredients:
9 pieces (about 8 oz.) SKINNER Lasagne, uncooked
1 lb. ground beef
3 cups (about 26-oz. jar) spaghetti sauce
1-1/2 cups water
1-3/4 cups (15-oz. container) ricotta or small curd cottage cheese
2 cups (8 oz.) shredded mozzarella or Monterey jack cheese, divided
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 eggs
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions:
Heat oven to 350°F.
In 3-quart saucepan over medium heat, brown meat; drain. Add spaghetti sauce and water; simmer about 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, in large bowl, stir together ricotta cheese, one-half mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, eggs, parsley, salt and pepper.
Pour about 1 cup sauce on bottom of 13x9x2-inch baking dish.
Arrange 3 UNCOOKED pasta pieces lengthwise over sauce; cover with about 1 cup sauce.
Spread one-half cheese filling over sauce.
Repeat layers of lasagne, sauce and cheese filling.
Top with layer of lasagne and remaining sauce; sprinkle with remaining mozzarella cheese. Cover with foil.
Bake 45 minutes. Remove foil; bake additional 15 minutes or until hot and bubbly.
Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
10-12 servings.
If you use Ragu as your spaghetti sauce, then add only 1 cup of water instead of 1 1/2 cups.
And it is EASY!

First you take poop on a stick. Then you wrap it around some pasta. Bake it in the oven. Add cheese from that green can. Delicious.
