Instructions
In a large pot over low heat, saute the onion and garlic in the olive oil.
Add salt and pepper to taste.
Once the onion and garlic are transluscent add the 2 lbs of ground beef and brown on medium heat.
Add the 2 jars of sauce and mix well.
Bring the heat down to low and place a lid on the pot to let simmer for about 15 minutes.
Remove from the burner, remove the lid and let cool for another 15 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 425°F.
Using a 9" x 13" baking pan you can now assemble the lasagna.
Start with coating the bottom of the pan with some of the tomatoe sauce.
Layer the turkey slices, I used 6 slices per layer but you may need to use more, depending on how big your slices are.
Next layer the provolone, I used 8 slices per layer.
Layer on the meat sauce.
Add layer of shredded mozzarella.
Layer another 2 more times, for a total of 3 layers. If you are using a shallow pan you may only have 2 layers or if your pan is deeper you could possibly have 4 layers.
Cover with tinfoil and place in oven for 30 minutes, I placed my pan on a cookie sheet in case there was any spill over.
Remove from oven, remove the tinfoil and place back in the oven for another 30 minutes.
Remove from oven, let sit for about 10-15 minutes to allow the lasagna to set. This will make it easier to slice without it falling apart.
I sliced it in squares with a sharp knife and then I removed each square with a metal spatula

Notes
Pro Tip: if using parmesan only sprinkle over the final layer. Otherwise it may make the lasagna too salty if sprinkling on every layer.
