STEP 2: Add the sausage and the ground meat to the pan, break lumps up with a fork, and brown for a few minutes, stirring occasionally.

STEP 3: Add in chopped onion, grated garlic, Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes, salt, black pepper, and cook for 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Pour in the marinara sauce and simmer for 5 minutes.

STEP 4: Cook 1 pound of pasta in 1 gallon of boiling water with 2 tablespoons of salt. Reserve one cup of pasta water, then drain the pasta, and toss it in the sauce until thoroughly coated (off the heat).

STEP 5: Cover the bottom of the baking dish with 1 cup of reserved tomato sauce. Then add 6 dollops of ricotta cheese (about ½ cup of ricotta).

STEP 6: Add in the pasta and arrange it evenly across the baking dish.

Cover with the reserved 2 cups of tomato sauce, then with the remaining ricotta, grated parmesan, and shredded mozzarella cheese.

Bake at 350°F or 180°C for 20 minutes, or until the cheese melts and browns.

Let sit out of the oven for 10 minutes before serving it.
