# Ingredients:
01 -
1/4 pound spicy Italian sausage.
02 -
1 ciabatta roll.
03 -
2 tablespoons olive oil.
04 -
1 tablespoon salted butter.
05 -
1/2 teaspoon Italian herb mix.
06 -
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder.
07 -
2 minced garlic cloves.
08 -
14 ounces canned crushed tomatoes.
09 -
A pinch of oregano.
10 -
Salt and pepper to taste.
11 -
Optional: chili flakes.
12 -
1/3 pound ground beef, divided in halves.
13 -
3 mozzarella slices.
14 -
1 lasagna noodle, cooked.
15 -
1 tablespoon creamy ricotta cheese.
# Instructions:
01 -
Spread butter on both sides of your bun, sprinkle garlic powder and Italian herbs. Broil it until lightly crisped and golden.
02 -
Heat olive oil in a pan, saute minced garlic, toss in canned tomatoes, and season with oregano, pepper, and salt. Let this bubble away for 10 minutes, then add some cooked lasagna noodles.
03 -
Shape your beef and sausage into meatballs. Preheat a cast iron skillet on high heat, smash them into burger shapes, cook each side for a minute, then melt some mozzarella on top.
04 -
Stack it up like this: bottom half of bun, a beef patty, some lasagna and ricotta, sausage patty, another lasagna with ricotta, another beef patty, one more lasagna with ricotta, and finally the top bun.
05 -
Let your burger sit for a bit before digging in. It'll hold together better.
# Notes:
01 -
You'll have enough sauce for 5 servings.
02 -
Rest the burger for a sturdier sandwich.
03 -
Store-bought sauce works too.
04 -
Ciabatta bread stays firm and doesn't fall apart.
05 -
A cool mix of two cuisines.

Guaranteed to keep you full.
