WONDERFUL LASAGNA
This is not low fat, and is nothing but pure comfort food. Serve with yummy garlic bread and a salad. It also includes 8 hours of sitting time for the sauce, but I think everyone knows how much better Italian tastes the day after. This 8 hours of sitting lets the sauce develop. The cook time does not include the 8 hours of chilling time, so plan for that! I make the meat sauce the day before, and assemble the next day.

OUR FAVORITE LASAGNA
This recipe comes from the Good Housekeeping Illustrated Cookbook and it is the best lasagna recipe we have tried. I don't have any trouble finding the page in my cookbook because it has a few stains and looks worn compared to the other pages. The recipe doubles very easily, I use a 9x13x2-inch glass cake pan and it is always filled to the top. Definitely have to have some good crusty bread to sop up the bit of sauce that is left in the pan!

Steps:
- FOR THE LASAGNA: Prepare lasagna according to package directions.
- Drain and set aside. NOTE: You can use Barella No Boil Noodles, but be sure during the assembly of the layers that the noodles do not stick out.
- Cook Italian sausage either in a skillet or by boiling in a pot of water, thinly slice crosswise and set aside.
- Brown the ground beef and ground pork in a skillet, drain off and discard fat.
- Add onion and garlic to the ground meat, stir and cook another 5 minutes.
- Add the sugar, salt, basil, fennel seeds, pepper and the Marinara sauce and simmer for 20 minutes.
- While the above mixture is simmering, combine in a large bowl the eggs, Ricotta cheese, and parsley.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Take a 13 by 9 inch baking dish and spray the bottom with a non-stick spray, such as Pam.
- In the baking dish, spoon in a layer of 1/3 of the meat sauce.
- Then layer 1/3 of the lasagna pasta (overlapping each strip of pasta with the other).
- Then layer 1/3 of the Ricotta mixture.
- Then layer 1/3 of the sliced olives and 1/3 of the sliced Italian sausage.
- Then layer 1/3 of the sliced mushrooms.
- Then layer 1/3 of the Mozzarella and 1/3 of the Parmesan.
- Then continue to repeat the layering until all of the ingredients are layered.
- When the layering is completed, cover with aluminum foil, making certain that the foil is not touching the top of the lasagna, and bake for 25 minutes.
- Remove foil and bake, uncovered, another 25 minutes.
- Remove from oven and allow to sit and rest 10 minutes before cutting.
- FOR THE MARINARA SAUCE (by Alan Leonetti): Empty Hunts chunky crushed tomatoes and Hunts tomato paste into the pot.
- Add the extra-virgin olive oil to the pot.
- Slice the cloves of garlic crosswise into either halves or thirds or pieces, and dump them into the pot.
- Dice the shallot, and dump that into the pot.
- Add the rest of the ingredients, and stir to mix well with a large long handled wooden spoon.
- Do not strain, as the pulp adds to make this a thick and wonderful sauce.
- Cover and cook on medium heat, stirring every 10 minutes for about an hour or until it bubbles and is completely heated throughout.
- Reduce heat to simmer, and continue to simmer, stirring every 10 or 15 minutes to keep from burning or sticking to the bottom of the pot for 1 or 2 hours.
- Remove from heat and give it one last stir.
- Serve over spaghetti, ravioli, pasta or use for chicken parmesan, veal parmesan, or anything that calls for a Marinara sauce.
- NOTE: Use only Hunts Chunky Crushed Tomatoes and Hunts Tomato Paste.
