Nonna's lasagna Recipe

My Nonna made the best lasagna ever!
She didn't skimp onthe ingredients
and it took her an hour to put together
but this lasagna was just awesome tasting.
It feeds an army and is even better reheated.

Ingredients:
1 lb.lasagna pasta noodles, cooked
2-16 oz. jars meatless pasta sauce
1 lb. Ricotta cheese
1/2 cup fresh parsley
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 lb. Mozzarella cheese, sliced thin
3/4 cup chopped onion
2 cloves garlic, chopped or minced
2 tsp. salt
2 eggs, beaten
2 lbs. ground beef
1/2 pound Italian sausage
1 tsp. Italian seasoning

Directions:
Cook noodles until tender but still firm.
Drain and pour cold water
over the noodles, set aside.
Meanwhile, saute the ground beef and sausage,
garlic and onion is a large heavy skillet
or saucepan until beef is done.
Add sauce, salt, and Italian seasoning and mix well.
Simmer on low heat 12 to 15 minutes.
In a separate bowl,
combine eggs parsley and ricotta cheese.
Grease a 15" x 12" or larger, deep sided baking pan.
Arrange a first layer of noodles across the pan
so the ends hang over the sides.
Then add a layer of the lasagna sauce,
ricotta cheese and mozzarella cheese.
Add a second alternating layer of pasta
(lengthwise in the pan),
the sauce and cheese mixture.
Repeat until pan is almost full
then fold over the ends of the first layer
of noodles and top with more lasagna sauce.
Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and bake at
350 degrees F. for 40 to 45 minutes,
or till cheese is bubbly. Remove and
allow to set for 10 minutes before cutting.
