A cow, a pig and the pig's friend. Ground beef, sweet Italian sausage and locally smoked thick slice bacon.
Always remember the cardinal rule of cuisine: everything is better with bacon.
My standard lasagna recipe. All scratch ingredients is best, but mass-produced ingredients create a good result.
1 lb ground beef
1 lb sausage of choice (standard is sweet Italian)
1-2 slices thick bacon. Bacon permeates the dish so too much would be like eating bacon casserole.
1 lb ricotta cheese
1 lb mozzarella, fresh or shredded
1 wedge parmesan or 1 can Kraft parmesan
1 box (1 lb) lasagna noodles
1 large jar pasta sauce of choice (home made marinara is best, standard is Prego original)
3 eggs
Assemble and bake for approx 1 - 1.5 hrs at 350. I like the top pasta layer dry, browned and crispy. Add sauce on the plate when serving. The top crispy noodle is like a tortilla chip, nice crunch and flavor.
