Lasagna

Directions

1. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and drops the lasagna in. Drain once cooked and set aside.
2. In a large pot, begin to brown the beef. Keep cooking and stirring until there are no clumps, and beef begins to brown.
3. Add onions and garlic and cook until soft.
4. Add tomato sauce. Optionally, first add tomato paste and cook down for a minute.
5. Season to taste, then take off the heat.
6. Prepare the layers: start with a layer of sauce. Add sheets of pasta, then a layer of ricotta. Repeat this until out of pasta.
7. Top with a layer of remaining sauce, then mozzarella. Optionally, sprinkle grated parmesan on top.
8. Preheat oven to 350F. Bake, uncovered, for 45 minutes.
9. Broil for 2-3 minutes to achieve desired browning. Let rest for 15-20 minutes before cutting.
