Just like grandma used to make – at least it's like my kids' grandma used to make. It's a version of her recipe made gluten-free.

Recipe type: Main Dish
Serves: 12 servings
Ingredients
  • FOR THE SAUCE:
  • 1 lb. ground beef
  • 1 lb. ground pork
  • 32 oz. spaghetti sauce, homemade or jarred
  • 2 tsp. dried basil
  • 2 tsp. dried oregano
  • -
  • FOR THE CHEESE MIXTURE:
  • 15 oz. ricotta cheese
  • 1 cup parmesan cheese, grated
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 2 eggs, whole
  • 1 Tbls. Honey
  • 1 tsp. dried basil
  • 1 tsp. mineral salt
  • -
  • Gluten-free lasagna noodles, cooked to almost al dente and kept in cool water. Enough to make five complete layers in your lasagna pan.
  • -
  • Extra mozzarella cheese to top (about 2 cups)
Instructions
  1. TO ASSEMBLE THE PAN:
  2. Preheat oven to 400˚.
  3. You will need a pan equivalent to 9"x13".
  4. On the bottom of the pan spread a little bit of the sauce. This will keep the noodles from sticking to the bottom.
  5. Then, layer noodles, lengthwise in the pan, on top of the sauce leaving as little space between them as possible.
  6. Spread ⅓ of the leftover sauce on top of the noodles.
  7. Layer noodles on top of the sauce, going the other direction, parallel with the short side.
  8. With a spoon or a small ice cream scoop, scoop half the cheese mixture on top of the noodles and carefully spread it around in an even layer.
  9. Spread another layer of noodles lengthwise in the pan.
  10. Spread another ⅓ of the sauce on top of that and continue alternating the layers with cheese and sauce, ending with sauce on top of the dish.
  11. Spread the mozzarella cheese on top of that and place in the oven with a piece of foil lightly on top of the dish.
  12. Bake for 50 minutes, removing the foil after 30 minutes.
  13. Allow the top to brown and the pan to bubble on the sides.
  14. Remove and allow to cool for about 10 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to stop moving and makes it easier to get complete pieces out of the pan.
