3. Mix in tomato sauce, tomato paste, wine, water, oregano, garlic, salt, and pepper.
4. Bring to a boil.
5. Cover the pan and simmer softly for 1 1/2 hours.
6. Assemble lasagne: 1/3 of sauce in bottom of pan
1/3 of ricotta and mozzarella cheeses
cover with a single layer of noodles
Repeat 2 times but stop with meat and
cheese on top layer (I only use 2 layers
of the noodles)
7. Top with parmesan cheese.

Helpful Hints:

Note: Lasagne could be frozen after Step 6 to thaw and bake within a month. Lasagne could also be refrigerated for a day before baking after Step 6.

Serve with the same wine you used in the Lasagne.

This really is a great lasagne......a family favorite that I have to cook when the family gets together.
