Print Recipe

Discover the Million Dollar Lasagna Recipe, an indulgent dish that delivers rich flavors and creamy textures perfect for family dinners or special occasions.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb Ground Beef
  • 1 lb Italian Sausage
  • 1 medium Onion finely diced
  • 3 cloves Garlic minced
  • 28 oz Crushed Tomatoes
  • 2 tablespoon Tomato Paste
  • 1 tablespoon Italian Seasoning
  • to taste Salt
  • to taste Black Pepper

Instructions

  1. Brown the meats and aromatics in a large skillet until no pink remains, then drain off any excess grease.
  2. Simmer the sauce by stirring in crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Let it bubble gently for 15-20 minutes.
  3. Whip up the cheese mixture in a separate bowl. Combine ricotta (or cottage cheese), softened cream cheese, sour cream, and Parmesan until perfectly smooth.
  4. Layer with love: Spread a thin sauce layer in your baking dish, followed by noodles, a generous spread of cheese mixture, and more meat sauce. Repeat.
  5. Top and Bake with mozzarella cheese. Cover with foil and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 25 minutes, then uncover and bake for 20 more minutes until golden and bubbly.
  6. Let it rest for 10-15 minutes after baking to allow the layers to set beautifully for easy slicing.
  7. Optional: Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

For the creamiest layer, ensure your cream cheese is properly softened. Don’t rush the sauce; a low simmer allows the flavors to meld beautifully.
