Lasagna With Meat Balls Recipe

by CookEatShare Cookbook

Ingredients

3 pound lean beef 2 cloves garlic, minced 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon pepper 1 teaspoon grated lemon rind 2 T extra virgin olive oil

1 pound lasagna, cooked & liquid removed 1 pound ricotta cheese, cut thin pcs 1 pound mozzarella cheese 1 1/2 c. grated Parmesan cheese Parsley, minced Lasagna noodles, 1 pound

Directions

1. Salt and pepper grnd beef. Fry and drain with garlic.You can buy any favorite spaghetti sauce or possibly make your own. My recipe is: 2 cans tomato paste 2 lg. onions, minced 4-5 cloves garlic, minced (lg. ones) 1/4 c. extra virgin olive oil 2 teaspoon basil 1 teaspoon oregano 1/2 c. parsley, minced Salt to taste 1/2 teaspoon sugar
2. Chop onion and garlic; saute in oil. Break up tomatoes with clean hands by squashing them in large bowl after onions and garlic are sauteed (not browned). Pour in your tomato paste, stir with onions and garlic on medium heat, careful not to scorch. Keep stirring for a minute, then pour in your tomatoes, basil, oregano, salt, sugar, pepper and if desired it a little cayenne pepper (whole one) give the sauce a little spicy taste, not too hot which pepper, those long very thin ones, give. I hang them up to dry and they get red.
3. 1/2 hour before it's finished throw in your minced parsley. This is just your sauce that must simmer for at least 4 hrs.
