  • shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • 1 tsp basil

  • minced garlic

Method
 

  1. Boil your sausage links and slice them up... once they have cooled off a bit first!
  2. Cook your ground beef first and then add the sausage when the beef is almost done... cook for about 5 mins then add your garlic and cook another few more mins.
  3. Add your spaghetti sauce
  4. Boil your noodles and lay out on foil to cool
  5. Mix the ricotta, eggs, basil, oregano and pepper
  6. slice up your block mozzarella
  7. Fill the bottom of the pan with 1/2 of the meat sauce
  8. Cover with noodles
  9. Spread 1/2 of the ricotta mix on top of the noodles
  10. Place the sliced mozzarella cheese on top... then repeat the last two steps
  11. On top of the last layer of ricotta spread the shredded mozzarella followed by parmesan (if yours is filled to the top like mine... tuck down the edges a bit to help with the boil over!)
  12. Bake 375 degrees covered with foil and on a cookie sheet for 55 minutes... Uncover and bake for another 15 minutes
  13. Don't forget to make up some Easy French Bread to go with!!
