5. Add undrained tomatoes, tomato paste, tomato sauce, 2 tablespoons parsley, 1 tablespoon salt, the sugar, oregano, basil, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; mix well, mashing tomatoes with fork. Bring to boiling; reduce heat, simmer, covered and stirring occasionally for 1 hour.
6. Make Cheese Layer in a large bowl. Combine ricotta, 1-1/2 packages mozzarella, 1/2 cup Parmesan, the eggs, parsley, salt, and pepper. Beat with wooden spoon until all ingredients are blended. Spoon a little tomato sauce into prepared pan.
7. Layer noodles, cheese mixture, and tomato sauce. Repeat until all ingredients are used, ending with tomato sauce. Sprinkle with 3 tablespoons Parmesan and 1/2 package mozzarella. Bake, uncovered, 45 to 50 minutes, or until cheese is melted and top is browned.
