Lasagna Supreme
1 lb ground beef
1 lb sausage
1 green pepper, diced
1 med. onion, diced
1 small carton mushrooms, sliced
1 lg container cottage cheese
15 oz ricotta cheese
1 large jar spaghetti sauce
16 oz Mozzarella cheese
16 oz Italian blend cheese
Lasagna Noodles (approx 18)

Add beef, sausage, green pepper, onion, and sliced mushrooms to large pan, cook until meat is browned and veggies are tender. Drain. Add spaghetti sauce to meat mixture. In separate bowl mix ricotta and cottage cheeses together. Meanwhile boil lasagna noodles according to pkg directions. Lightly grease a 11x15 pan (yes I know that is bigger than 9x13..but face it..this is a LOT of food!) and place noodles in pan. (I usually do 4 noodles horizontally, then two on each side...to fill bottom of pan) Then add 1/3 meat mixture to noodles. Top with 1/3 of ricotta and cottage cheese mixture. Then top with Mozzarella cheese. Next 2 layers.. (noodles, meat mixture, cheese mixture, shredded cheese). Bake at 350* for 30-35 minutes or until nice and bubbly.

This is a recipe that I have just kinda fiddled with for years. And this is my final creation :) I will admit this is a LOT of Lasagna...so I usually make this for company...or my poor hubby would be eating these leftovers for lunch for a month! But it is totally worth it! So good!!!
