Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 0.5 pound Italian sausage
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 28 ounces Crushed tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon Dried basil
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 8 sheets Lasagna noodles (broken into 2-inch pieces)
- 1 cup Ricotta cheese
- 2 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
- 2 cups Water
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Add the ground beef and Italian sausage. Cook until browned, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess grease if needed.
Stir in the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute, until fragrant.
Add the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, dried basil, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
Pour in 2 cups of water and bring the mixture to a simmer.
Stir in the broken lasagna noodles, ensuring they are fully submerged in the sauce. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook over medium heat for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until the noodles are tender.
Dollop the ricotta cheese evenly over the skillet, then sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese over the top.
Cover the skillet again and cook for an additional 5 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, before serving hot.
