Directions:

In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef, onion, celery, red pepper, and garlic; drain off fat.
Add/mix in basil, oregano, thyme, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, diced tomatoes, and tomato paste; simmer for 30-45 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Preheat oven to 375°.
Bring a big pot of salted water to a boil; add in lasagna noodles, and cook for 9 minutes, or until al dente; drain.
Lay noodles, flat on towels, and blot dry.
In a bowl, mix the eggs, ricotta, 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese, parsley, and 1 teaspoon salt; set aside.
Oil the bottom and sides of a 13 x 9 inch baking dish.
Layer 1/3 of the lasagna noodles in the bottom of the pan; cover the noodles with half of the mozzarella cheese, and 1/3 of the sauce; repeat.
Top with remaining noodles and sauce.
Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan over the top.
