Instructions

1 Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
2 Put a large deep pot of water on the stove, lightly salt, and then turn up the
heat. When it's boiling, carefully put the lasagna noodles in the pot. Cook
until al dente, drain, then carefully drape the noodles over the edge of the
pot. (If you want, you can drizzle the noodles with a little bit of olive oil so
they do not stick to the pot).
3 In a skillet, cook the sweet Italian sausages over medium heat. I use a wooden
spoon to break down the meat as it cooks through.
4 In a large bowl, combine the ricotta, egg, salt, pepper, oregano, and parsley.
5 In a large baking dish, coat the bottom with some sauce. Cover the sauce with
3-4 noodles (depending on how wide your dish is). Spoon on some ricotta to the
noodles. Add some crumbles of sausage and some mushrooms. Sprinkle with
mozzarella cheese.
6 Then cover with a light layer of sauce.
7 Place down 3-4 more noodles, then repeat with the ricotta, sausage, mushroom,
mozzarella, and sauce. Repeat until there are only 3-4 noodles left for the
covering of the lasagna. I then spoon sauce over the noodles and apply a
generous helping of mozzarella cheese.Spray one side of a large piece of tin
foil with non-stick baking spray. Cover the lasagna and bake for 50-60 minutes.
Remove the tinfoil and bake for 15 more minutes.
8 Allow the lasagna to settle and cool for at least 10 minutes before digging in!
