Ingredients
- 3 cans cans (14.5-ounces) whole peeled tomatoes
- 1 (8-ounce) (8-ounce) can tomato sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium onion minced
- salt
- 3 medium garlic finely minced, cloves
- ⅛ teaspoon red pepper flakes these do not add spice – just flavor
- 1 tablespoon basil dried
- ½ tablespoon oregano dried
- ½ pound ground pork
- ½ pound ground beef I used 80% lean or lean ground turkey
- 12 lasagna noodles broken into 1 inch lengths, curly-edged
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
- ½ cup Parmesan Cheese grated
- ¾ cup ricotta cheese do not use fat-free
Instructions
- Pulse the tomatoes with their juice in a blender or food processor until they are coarsely ground and no large pieces remain (in a food processor, that is about 12 pulses).
- Heat the oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring often, until the onion is softened and translucent, about 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- Add the ground meat and cook, breaking apart the meat, until it is lightly browned and no longer pink, 5 to 6 minutes.
- Scatter the broken lasagna noodles over the meat and then pour in the ground tomatoes and tomato sauce over the pasta. Stir in the basil and oregano. Cover, increase the heat to medium-high, and cook, stirring often and adjusting the heat to maintain a vigorous simmer, until the pasta is tender, about 20 minutes.
- Off the heat, stir in half the mozzarella and half of the parmesan. Dot heaping tablespoons of the ricotta over the noodles, then sprinkle with the remaining mozzarella and parmesan.
- Cover and let stand off the heat until the cheese melts, 2 to 4 minutes. Serve.
