STEPS

1

Combine pork and ground beef in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat; cook and stir until browned and crumbly.

2

Add onion and cook until translucent.

3

Stir in crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, garlic, basil, salt, oregano, and sugar. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally.

4

While the sauce is simmering, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook lasagna noodles, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite. Drain and set aside.

5

While the noodles are cooking, preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

6

Mix cottage cheese, Parmesan cheese, eggs, remaining parsley, salt, and pepper in a large bowl until combined.

7

Assemble lasagna by spreading sauce over the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Layer with noodles, half the cheese mixture, half the remaining sauce, and half the mozzarella cheese. Repeat the process.

8

Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake.

9

Remove the foil and bake until the cheese is golden brown.

10

Let the lasagna stand for 10 minutes before cutting.
