Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 sheets Lasagna noodles
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 0.5 pound Italian sausage
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 24 ounces Marinara sauce
- 1 medium, diced Onion
- 3 minced Garlic cloves
- 16 ounces Sour cream
- 1.5 cups Ricotta cheese
- 2 cups, shredded Mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup, grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Dried basil
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cook the lasagna noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the ground beef and Italian sausage to the skillet. Cook until browned and no longer pink, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks, about 7–8 minutes.
Stir in the marinara sauce, dried basil, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Reduce the heat and let the sauce simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine the sour cream, ricotta cheese, 1 cup of shredded mozzarella, Parmesan cheese, and the egg. Mix until smooth and set aside.
Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with olive oil or cooking spray.
Spread a thin layer of the meat sauce at the bottom of the baking dish.
Layer 4 lasagna noodles over the sauce, slightly overlapping to cover the surface.
Spread 1/3 of the sour cream mixture over the noodles, followed by 1/3 of the remaining meat sauce.
Repeat the layers (noodles, sour cream mixture, meat sauce) two more times, finishing with a layer of meat sauce on top.
Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded mozzarella evenly over the top layer.
Cover the dish with aluminum 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 melted and bubbly.
Allow the lasagna to rest for 10–15 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
