Step 1

In a large skillet over medium heat, combine ground beef, Italian sausage, and chopped onions. Cook until the meat is browned and onions are translucent.

Step 2

Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.

Step 3

Stir in crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Simmer on low heat for at least 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 4

Meanwhile, cook lasagna noodles according to package, until al dente. Separate noodles and lay flat on parchment or wax paper until ready to use.

Step 5

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 6

In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, Pecorino Romano cheese, parsley, and egg. Mix well until you have a smooth consistency.

Step 7

Spread a thin layer of meat sauce in the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Arrange 4 cooked lasagna noodles over the sauce. Spread a third of the cheese mixture over the noodles. Sprinkle a cup of mozzarella cheese over the cheese mixture. Repeat the layers twice, starting with the meat sauce and finishing with a layer of mozzarella cheese. Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes.

Step 8

Remove the foil and bake for an additional 25 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.

Step 9

Allow the lasagna to rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing. This helps the layers set and makes serving easier. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and enjoy!
