Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Cook noodles: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add lasagna noodles one at a time to keep them from sticking. Boil until al dente: they should still be a little firm in the middle but not hard. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process, and toss with a drizzle of olive oil. This will keep them from sticking together as they sit.
- While your pasta water is coming to a boil, brown your meat and drain if there is a lot of fat. Add to your pasta sauce of choice. At this point make my 15 minute sauce if you want a fresh sauce! If you are using jarred sauce or sauce that you made in advance, there is no need to reheat that sauce. Just mix in the ground meat.
- Mince your fresh herbs and mix them into the ricotta.
- Assemble lasagna: I add a little bit of sauce to the bottom of the dish to keep the noodles from sticking. I try to just get sauce and not meat. Start with noodles and cover the bottom of the dish, overlapping a little bit if necessary. I usually get 3 across. Then spread about ½ cup of the ricotta mixture over the noodles, holding them in place with your hand while you spread. Add about a quarter of the sauce and then sprinkle with mozzarella and parmesan. Repeat until you have filled your dish! Top with extra mozzarella and parmesan.
- Bake in preheated oven for approximately 45 minutes or until the top browns and the sauce bubbly. I suggest letting it cool 15-20 minutes before serving, but if it is dinner time, DIG IN!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Cook the lasagna noodles in plenty of boiling salted water until pliable and barely tender, about 10 minutes. Stir with a wooden spoon to prevent sticking. Drain the noodles thoroughly and coat with olive oil to keep them moist and easy to work with.
- Coat a large skillet with olive oil, add beef and sausage and brown until no longer pink, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. In a food processor, combine the onion, carrots, celery, garlic, basil, parsley, an oregano. Process until pureed, add to the pan with the ground meat and stir to combine. Stir in the flour. Add the wine and cook until it has reduced by half. Stir in the tomatoes and add the heavy cream and the cinnamon.
- In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta and the parmesan. Stir in the eggs and season with salt and pepper.
- To assemble the lasagna: Coat the bottom of a deep 13 by 9-inch pan with olive oil. Arrange 4 noodles lengthwise in a slightly overlapping layer on the sauce. Then, line each end of the pan with a lasagna noodle. This forms a collar that holds in the corners. Dollop 1/2 of the ricotta mixture over the pasta, spread to the edges with a spatula. Spread 1/2 of the meat mixture over the ricotta. Sprinkle 1/2 of the mozzarella on top of the ricotta. Top with a ladle full of sauce, spread evenly. Repeat with the next layer of noodles, ricotta, sauce, and cheeses. Top last layer with noodles, sauce, shredded mozzarella and Parmesan. Tap the pan to force out air bubbles. Bake for 1 hour. Remove from oven. Let lasagna rest for 30 minutes so the noodles will settle and cut easily. Cut into 2-inch squares and serve.

NO-FUSS LASAGNA
I like this recipe because it can be prepared a day ahead and baked just before serving, so it's a great way to avoid that last-minute rush when attending a potluck. Using packaged spaghetti sauce and noodles that are not pre-boiled makes preparation especially quick. -Denise Goedeken, Platte Center, Nebraska

ULTIMATE NO-FAIL LASAGNA
I love this lasagna recipe because it never fails me, even though I'm a rookie cook! This is so easy to make and it makes tons so I always freeze half and eat it for a month! If you want to make a small pan, divide the recipe in half and it'll still turn out great! *Edited to add: This can be made without the eggs! The cheese mixture will still be delicious without the egg.

Steps:
- Make the pasta dough: In a large bowl, whisk together the 00 flour, spinach powder, and salt. Transfer to a clean surface and make a large well in the center. Add the egg yolks and eggs and mix with a fork, slowly incorporating the flour with egg mixture until a loose dough begins to form.
- Once all of the flour has been incorporated, knead the dough by hand for 20 minutes, until stiff. Depending on the size of the eggs, a few tablespoons of water or a light dusting of flour may be needed to bring the dough together.
- Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let rest at room temperature for 2 hours.
- Lightly dust the dough with flour and roll out to a long oval. Divide the oval in half and wrap one portion in plastic wrap. With the other portion, using the pasta roller attachment on a stand mixer, laminate and roll out the dough to setting #5. Repeat with the remaining dough.
- Cut sheets of dough to fit a 9 x 13-inch (22 x 33 cm) baking pan. Dust semolina between each sheet to prevent sticking.
- Make the bechamel: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 5 minutes, until translucent.
- Add the flour and continue to cook, stirring constantly, for about 4 minutes, until golden brown and fragrant. Slowly stream in the milk, whisking continuously. simmer for 2-3 minutes, until the sauce thickens.
- Season with the salt, pepper, and nutmeg to
- Remove the pot from the heat and let the sauce cool to room temperature.
- Make the meat gravy: Add the vegetable oil, butter, and onion to a large pot over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent, 5 minutes. Add the garlic, celery and carrot and cook for about 4 minutes, stirring the vegetables to coat in the butter until fragrant. Season with the salt and pepper.
- Add the ground beef. Break up the meat very well, then season with more salt. Cook until the beef has lost its raw, red color, 4-5 minutes. Add water as needed to help the beef break down.
- Increase heat to medium-high. Add the milk and simmer, stirring frequently, until it has bubbled away slightly, 15-20 minutes. Add the nutmeg and stir to combine. Add the wine and simmer until it has slightly evaporated, 10-15 minutes.
- Add the tomatoes and stir thoroughly. When the tomatoes begin to bubble, reduce the heat to low to maintain a simmer. Cook, uncovered, for 2 hours or more, stirring often until the tomatoes have reduced slightly, and the fat has separated on the top. Remove the pot from the heat, season with salt and pepper to taste, and let cool.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and grease with nonstick spray.
- Assemble the lasagna: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Prepare an ice bath in a large bowl and set nearby.
- Working in batches, blanch the pasta sheets in the boiling water for 30-60 seconds, then transfer to the ice bath to stop the cooking process. Immediately transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Separate each pasta sheet with nonstick spray and parchment paper.
- Begin layering the lasagna in a 9 x 13-inch (22 x 33 cm) baking dish, starting with the meat gravy, then pasta, then bechamel, Parmesan cheese, gravy, shredded mozzarella, and more pasta. Repeat with the remaining ingredients, then finish with a layer of sliced mozzarella
- Bake the lasagna for 45-60 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Turn the oven to broil and cook until the cheese on top is golden brown, 1-2 minutes.
