WONDERFUL LASAGNA
This is not low fat, and is nothing but pure comfort food. Serve with yummy garlic bread and a salad. It also includes 8 hours of sitting time for the sauce, but I think everyone knows how much better Italian tastes the day after. This 8 hours of sitting lets the sauce develop. The cook time does not include the 8 hours of chilling time, so plan for that! I make the meat sauce the day before, and assemble the next day.

Steps:
- Remove the sausage from the casings. Cook the sausage, ground chuck, 1/2 cup green onions, and garlic in 3-4 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet until the meat is browned, stirring to crumble the meat; drain. Add the tomato sauce, tomato paste, 1/4 tsp oregano, dash of basil, salt and pepper; stir well. Bring to a boil; cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring frequently. Cover and chill for 8 hours.
- Combine the Monterey Jack cheese, ricotta cheese, cottage cheese, 1/2 cup minced green onions, parsley, beaten egg, basil, and oregano in a medium bowl; stir well, and set aside.
- Cook the bacon until crisp; crumble the bacon. Combine the bacon, spinach, Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, egg yolk, and if desired, 2 tbsp olive oil.
- Spoon half of the reserved meat sauce in a lightly greased 13 x 9 x 2 inch baking dish. Layer half of the reserved ricotta cheese mixture over the meat sauce; top with half of the spinach mixture. Arrange the noodles evenly over the spinach mixture. Repeat layers with half of the meat sauce, ricotta cheese mixture, and spinach mixture.
- Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of Monterey Jack cheese evenly over the lasagna mixture; top evenly with Swiss cheese slices.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 40 to 45 minutes or until the cheese melts and the mixture is hot and bubbly.

Steps:
- For the meat mixture: In a heavy-bottomed pan, heat the olive oil. Add the celery, carrots, onions, and rosemary and season with a little salt and pepper. Stir, then cook for about 5 minutes.
- Add the ground beef and cook, stirring often, until thoroughly cooked, about 15 minutes.
- Add the red wine and cook about 10 minutes. Lower the heat to medium, then add the tomatoes and simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Check the seasoning. Set aside and let it cool.
- For the bechamel: Heat the milk in a small saucepan, but keep it from boiling. In another deep saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour, salt and nutmeg and whisk until smooth and light gold. Add the heated milk, 1 cup at a time, whisking constantly. Cook, constantly whisking, until it thickens, for another 10 minutes. Set aside and let it cool.
- For the lasagna layers: Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil. Set up an ice bath and set aside. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Generously butter a 12-by-20-by-2 1/2-inch baking dish.
- Drop the lasagna sheets in the boiling water a few at a time, then cook for 1 minute. Transfer the lasagna sheets to the ice bath, then drain and lay the pasta flat.
- To the prepared baking dish, add a layer of lasagna sheets, a layer of bechamel, a layer of freshly grated Parmesan and a layer of meat sauce. Repeat twice, using all the ingredients.
- Bake until golden brown and bubbling, about 30 minutes. Allow to rest for 5 minutes prior to slicing and serving.
CROWD-SOURCED MEAT LASAGNA
There are very few dishes that taste equally as good, if not better, on the second day as they do on the first. Lasagna is one of them. It takes a bit of effort to make, but with your help we've created a great recipe for this layered dish. In my first question to you about this recipe, I asked what direction we were going for the noodles. When 64% of you said you wanted to use OG (dried) lasagna noodles, I knew we were in for a classic version. Make no mistake, this is a meat lasagna, because 84% of you wanted to push the veggies aside. Which brings me to the cheese: This lasagna is loaded with so much of it, I expect to see plenty of cheese pulls on social media (tag me)! Mozzarella and ricotta were the top picks, so we piled them on - along with a dusting of Parmesan. Once you bake your lasagna, try this tip: Use the tines of a fork to perforate the cheesy top into squares so you don't drag your cheese along with the knife when you're serving it. And of course, don't forget to follow me @SunnyAnderson on Twitter to catch the next poll.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400˚ F. Rub the bottom and sides of a deep 9-by-13-inch baking dish (about 5 quarts) with olive oil. Set aside.
- Make the sauce: Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion, garlic, 1 teaspoon oregano and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until golden, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the beef and sausage and cook, breaking up the meat into crumbles with a spoon, until no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and cook until everything is well coated and the tomato paste is a shade darker, about 2 minutes. Add the vermouth and cook, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot, until almost dry. Add the crushed tomatoes, 1 1/2 cups water, the remaining 1 teaspoon oregano, 1 teaspoon salt and a generous amount of pepper. Bring to a simmer, reduce the heat to low and simmer gently until the sauce reduces slightly, 20 to 25 minutes. Season with salt and pepper; add a pinch of sugar if the tomatoes taste sharp.
- Meanwhile, cook the noodles: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook, stirring, until just al dente and pliable, about 6 minutes. Transfer to a colander; run cool water over the noodles and separate them.
- Make the filling: Lightly beat the eggs in a medium bowl. Add the ricotta, 2/3 cup Parmesan, the parsley, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and stir until combined.
- Assemble the lasagna: Spread a thin layer of sauce (about 1 cup) in the bottom of the baking dish. Top with 3 noodles, laying them lengthwise. Top the noodles with one-quarter of the remaining sauce (about 2 cups). Dollop one-third of the ricotta mixture (about 1 1/2 cups) on top and spread in an even layer. Top with 3/4 cup mozzarella and 1 tablespoon Parmesan. Repeat these layers two more times (noodles, sauce, ricotta mixture, mozzarella and parmesan). For the last layer, add the remaining 3 noodles, sauce, mozzarella and Parmesan.
- Cover the baking dish with foil, sealing the edges (do not press the foil into the cheese). Bake until the lasagna is hot and bubbly, 35 to 40 minutes. Uncover and continue baking until golden brown, 20 to 30 more minutes. Let cool at least 20 minutes before slicing.
