Add the garlic and onion and cook with the meat, stirring constantly.<\/li><li>Stir in the oregano, 1 teaspoon salt, basil, sugar, fennel seeds, pepper, and \u00bc cup parsley until combined.<\/li><li>Pour in all tomato products and bone broth into the dutch oven.&nbsp; Stir well and bring to a simmer.&nbsp; Reduce heat to medium low and simmer for approximately 2 hours, stirring occasionally.<\/li><li>In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese, egg, remaining parsley, \u00bd teaspoon salt and stirring to incorporate.<\/li><li>Lightly grease 9&#215;13 deep dish pan<\/li><li>To assemble, spread about 1 cup of the meat sauce in the bottom of the deep dish pan.&nbsp; Place 4 noodles on top barely overlapping each other.&nbsp; This should cover the majority of the pan.&nbsp; Spread 1\/3 of the ricotta mixture on top of the noodles.&nbsp; Top with mozzarella cheese slices.&nbsp; Spoon 1\/3 of the remaining meat mixture of the mozzarella.&nbsp; Then spread \u00bc cup of parmesan cheese over meat mixture.&nbsp; Repeat layering two more times until you have three complete layers.&nbsp; Top with remaining parmesan cheese.<\/li><li>Loosely cover with aluminum foil (I tent my foil with toothpicks that I have set into the top layer of the lasagna)<\/li><li>Bake covered for 30 minutes.&nbsp; Remove foil and bake an additional 25 minutes to brown the top layer of cheese.&nbsp; It would be wise to place a cookie sheet underneath the lasagna to catch drippings.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Chef\u2019s Note:<\/strong> Thinly sliced eggplant strips can be substituted for the pasta for a reduced carbohydrate meal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ingredients: 1 lb ground venison 1 \u00bd lb ground Italian sausage venison 5 cloves garlic 1 large chopped onion (I prefer Vidalia for its sweetness) 1 28 oz can crushed tomatoes 1 15 oz can tomato sauce 2 6 oz cans tomato paste 1&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[6,10,74],"tags":[55,54,14],"class_list":["post-346","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-cajun-recipe","category-recipe","category-venison-recipe","tag-italian","tag-lasagna","tag-venison"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.edibleoutdoorscook.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/346","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.edibleoutdoorscook.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.edibleoutdoorscook.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.edibleoutdoorscook.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.edibleoutdoorscook.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=346"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.edibleoutdoorscook.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/346\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":351,"href":"https:\/\/www.edibleoutdoorscook.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/346\/revisions\/351"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.edibleoutdoorscook.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=346"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.edibleoutdoorscook.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=346"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.edibleoutdoorscook.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=346"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
