Steps:
- In a Dutch oven, cook sausage, ground beef, onion, and garlic over medium heat until well browned. Stir in crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, tomato sauce, and water. Season with sugar, basil, fennel seeds, Italian seasoning, 1 teaspoon salt, pepper, and 2 tablespoons parsley. Simmer, covered, for about 1 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally.
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook lasagna noodles in boiling water for 8 to 10 minutes. Drain noodles, and rinse with cold water. In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese with egg, remaining parsley, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- To assemble, spread 1 1/2 cups of meat sauce in the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Arrange 6 noodles lengthwise over meat sauce. Spread with one half of the ricotta cheese mixture. Top with a third of mozzarella cheese slices. Spoon 1 1/2 cups meat sauce over mozzarella, and sprinkle with 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese. Repeat layers, and top with remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheese. Cover with foil: to prevent sticking, either spray foil with cooking spray, or make sure the foil does not touch the cheese.
- Bake in preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove foil, and bake an additional 25 minutes. Cool for 15 minutes before serving.

LASAGNA SPIRALS
This is a good meatless dish that is very easy to make and so good too. I make several at one time and freeze what I don't use for dinner. Then I just take from freezer what I need, thaw, bake, and voila! You could be creative with these too and add other veggies.

Tips:
- Make sure to use fresh lasagna noodles for the best results. Dried noodles will not cook evenly and will result in a mushy texture.
- Don't overcook the lasagna noodles. They should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked noodles will become mushy and will not hold their shape.
- Use a variety of cheeses in your ricotta filling. A combination of ricotta, Parmesan, and mozzarella cheeses will give you a rich and flavorful filling.
- Add some fresh herbs to your ricotta filling for extra flavor. Basil, oregano, and parsley are all great options.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different sauces for your lasagna. A traditional tomato sauce is always a good choice, but you could also try a pesto sauce or a white sauce made with béchamel.
- Let the lasagna rest for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the lasagna to set.
