- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 pound ground pork
- ½ cup tomato paste
- Salt, to taste

- 2 cups red wine

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Add olive oil and butter to a skillet on medium-high heat. Once warmed, add the carrot, onion, celery, and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown.
- Once the vegetables have caramelized, add in the ground beef, pork, salt, pepper, and tomato paste. Stir to combine, breaking up the pieces of meat, until the meat has browned.
- Once the sauce is dark brown and starting to stick slightly to the bottom of the pan, add the red wine. Scrape the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon to release all the cooked brown bits.
- Once the wine comes to a simmer, add in the diced canned tomatoes, and stir to combine.
- Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook for at least 30 minutes and then set aside.
- In a large bowl, mix together the ricotta, basil, Parmesan, parsley, egg, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
- In a 9 x 13-inch glass baking pan, add a layer of bolognese to the bottom. Top with noodles, then spread a layer of ricotta. Repeat with another layer of bolognese, noodles, ricotta, noodles, bolognese, extra mozzarella, and Parmesan.
- Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake again for an additional 15 minutes until the cheese on top has browned and the bolognese is bubbling.
- Slice, serve, and enjoy!
