| 1. Brown the sausage and ground meat and drain all the fat. | 2. Add all the other ingredients for the meat filling and simmer on the stove, uncovered, for about 1/2 hour. | 3. I usually add a bay leaf or two. | 4. Mix up the cheese filling and set aside in fridge until ready to use. | 5. Put the noodles in salted water and cook until soft when poked with a fork. | 6. When the noodles are done, drain the noodles and rinse off with cold water so they can be handled easily. | 7. Spray the baking pan with a non-stick spray and put a layer of noodles down on the bottom of the pan. It is OK to cut some of the noodles to fit into the pan if they do not fit whole. | 8. Spread half the cheese filling over the noodels, then half of the mozarella cheese on top of that, then half of the meat sauce over the grated mozarella cheese. | 9. REPEAT layers and then top with more mozarella cheese. | 10. Bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes. Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting into it. | 11. Leftovers can be easily stored in the freezer. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
