Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the lasagna noodles until just al dente, according to package instructions. Drain and set the noodles aside.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil. Sauté the garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add the ground beef and Italian sausage to the skillet. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, about 7–8 minutes. Drain any excess grease.
Stir the marinara sauce into the meat mixture. Simmer on low heat for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a medium bowl, mix the ricotta cheese, egg, grated Parmesan cheese, basil, oregano, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Spread a thin layer of meat sauce evenly across the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Place three lasagna noodles across the bottom of the dish. Top with 1/3 of the ricotta mixture, 1/3 of the meat sauce, and 1/3 of the shredded mozzarella. Repeat the layering process two more times, finishing with the mozzarella cheese on top.
Cover the dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
Remove from the oven and let the lasagna rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your Galley Wise Lasagna!
