1 #10 can marinara sauce
1 cup red wine
7 lasagna sheets
2 cups ricotta cheese
1 pound Parmesan cheese
2 pounds mozzarella cheese, diced

Making the Sauce

Layer another 2⅓ lasagna sheets and repeat from first layer except for the mozzarella cheese. For the third layer, add another 2⅓ lasagna sheets, spread the remaining cup of ricotta cheese and the rest of mozzarella and parmesan cheeses. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cover hotel pan with foil and cook lasagna for 30 minutes.
