Lasagna

Just a recipe from the American Beauty Lasagna noodles box...If anyone has a good lasagna recipe, I'd love you to share it with me.

1 Pkg (8 0z) Lasagna
1 lb ground beef
2 Cups spaghetti sauce
1-3/4 Cups (15 oz) ricotta cheese
2 Cups shredded mozzarella cheese (I use more)
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese (I use more)
1 Egg
2 Teaspoons dried parsley flakes
Salt and pepper to taste

Cook pasta according to package directions (boil for 10 minutes). Lay flat on fool to cool. Heat oven to 350 degrees. In large skillet, add meat; cook until brown. Drain; stir in spaghetti sauce. In medium bowl, stir together ricotta, 1 cup mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, egg and seasonings. In 13X9X2-inch baking dish, spread 1/2 cup meat sauce; place 3 pasta pieces lengthwise over sauce. Spread one-half ricotta mixture over pasta; cover with 1 cup meat sauce. Repeat layers of pasta, ricotta mixture and meat sauce. Top with remaining pasta, meat sauce and mozzarella cheese. Cover with foil. Bake 30 minutes; remove foil. Bake 15 minutes or until hot and bubbly. Let stand 10 minutes.
