Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Crack the eggs into a large mixing bowl.
- Season the eggs with a dash of salt and a dash of black pepper.
- Whisk the eggs thoroughly until well combined.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the Italian sausage until it is browned and fully cooked, breaking it up into small pieces as it cooks.
- Once cooked, remove the sausage from the skillet and set it aside.
- In the same skillet, add the softened cream cheese and beef broth.
- Stir continuously over medium heat until the cream cheese has melted and the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Remove the skillet from the heat.
- Grease a 9x13 inch (23x33 cm) baking dish.
- Pour half of the whisked eggs into the bottom of the baking dish, spreading them out evenly.
- Layer half of the cooked Italian sausage over the eggs.
- Evenly distribute half of the diced ham over the sausage.
- Pour half of the cream cheese sauce over the ham layer, spreading it out with a spatula.
- Repeat the layers: Pour the remaining whisked eggs, then layer the remaining sausage and ham, and finally, pour the rest of the cream cheese sauce over the top.
- Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top of the lasagna.
- Follow with an even layer of grated Parmesan cheese.
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly, and the eggs are fully set.
- Remove the lasagna from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
- Serve warm and enjoy!
Tips:
- When cooking the Italian sausage, make sure to break it up into small pieces to ensure even distribution in the lasagna.
- For a creamier texture, you can soften the cream cheese before mixing it with the other ingredients.
- Feel free to customize the recipe by adding in vegetables like spinach or bell peppers for extra nutrients and flavor.
- Use freshly grated parmesan cheese for the best flavor and texture.
- Make sure to let the lasagna cool for a few minutes before cutting into it, as this will help it set and make slicing easier.
