Notes:  I modified this recipe from an Ina Garten recipe.  It's absolutely delicious.

Ingredients:
2 tablespoons Olive Oil
1 cup chopped onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
1.5 pounds sweet italian sausage
1 (28 ounces) crushed tomatoes in puree
1 (6 ounces) tomato paste
1/4 cup chopped flat leaf parsley, divided
1/2 cup chopped fresh basil
Kosher salt to taste
Ground pepper to taste
1/2 pound lasagna noodles
15 ounces ricotta cheese
3-4 ounces goat cheese, crumbled
1 cup grated parmasean cheese
1 extra large egg, slightly beaten
1 pound fresh mozerella

Instructions:


  1. Heat skillet with oil, add onion, cook minutes on medium low.
  2. Add garlic and cook for 1 more minute.
  3. Add sausage and cook for 8 - 10 minutes.
  4. Add tomatoes, 2 tablespoons of parsley, basil, 1 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
  5. Simmer, uncovered 15 - 20 minutes until thick.
  6. In a medium bowl combine ricotta, goat cheese, 1 cup parmasean, egg, and remaining parsley.  Add salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Soak the lasagna noodles 20 minutes in hot tap water.
  8. Ladle 1/3 of the sauce into a 9x12 pan.
  9. Add pasta, mozerella, and ricotta sauce, etc.  There will be two main layers.  Sprinkle the top with 1/4 cup parmasean cheese and back for 30 minutes.
