Meaty Lasagna Bolognese
Ingredients
  • 1
    pound lean ground beef
  • 8
    ounces bulk Italian sausage
  • 4
    ounces pancetta or bacon, cut into 1/4-inch pieces
  • 1
    large onion, chopped
  • 2
    medium carrots, chopped
  • 2
    stalks celery, chopped
  • 3
    cloves garlic, minced
  • 1
    cup whole milk or half-and-half
  • 1/2
    cup dry white wine
  • 1/2
    cup chicken broth
  • 1
    cup canned crushed tomatoes
  • 2
    tablespoons tomato paste
  • 1
    tablespoon snipped fresh sage
  • 1
    tablespoon snipped fresh flat-leaf parsley
  • 1/2
    teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/4
    teaspoon salt
  • 1/4
    teaspoon crushed red pepper
  • 2
    cups shredded mozzarella cheese (8 ounces)
  • 1
    cup finely shredded Parmesan cheese (4 ounces)
  • 12
    no-boil lasagna noodles
  • 1
    10 ounce container refrigerated alfredo pasta sauce
Directions

1. For meat sauce: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. In a large pot, cook ground beef, sausage, pancetta, onion, carrots, celery, and garlic over medium-high heat until meat is brown and vegetables are tender. Drain off fat.

2. Stir in milk. Simmer, uncovered, until milk is nearly evaporated. Stir in wine and broth. Simmer, uncovered, until liquid is nearly evaporated. Stir in crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, sage, parsley, black pepper, salt, and crushed red pepper. In a medium bowl, combine mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses.

3. To assemble, spread one-third of the meat sauce over the bottom of an ungreased 13x9x2-inch baking dish or 3-quart rectangular casserole. Sprinkle with one-fourth of the cheese mixture. Top with noodles. Repeat layering meat sauce, cheese mixture, and noodles two more times. Spread the alfredo sauce evenly over the noodles.

4. Cover dish with foil. Bake for 40 minutes. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese mixture. Bake, uncovered, about 10 minutes more or until heated through. Let stand for 15 minutes before serving. Makes 9 or 10 servings.

Made this for Sunday Lunch and was was very good, although I left out the sausage as didn't have any and I made my own alfredo sauce as I'm a strong believer of making everything from scratch..it is time consuming but the outcome is really good..

This is really tasty. The bolognese sauce it scrumptious. Much better than the jarred sauce.

I have made this several times and is a big hit with my friends, I left out the wine each time I made it because I never seem to have any.
