THE SAUCE 29 oz tomato sauce Pour tomato sauce and tomato paste into a large pot. Add oregano, rosemary, pepper, and bayleaf. Simmer. Brown ground beef. Drain. Add to tomato sauce. Chop onion, tomato, green pepper, and mushrooms. Add to tomato sauce. Let simmer for 30 minutes. THE PASTA 9 lasagna noodles In a large pot, boil enough water to cover 9 lasagna noodles. Once you have brought water to a boil, add noodles. Cook according to package instructions. Do not overcook. THE CHEESE 1 lb mozzarella cheese Grate mozzarella, cheddar. In a bowl, combine ricotta and olives. PUTTING IT ALL TOGETHER When pasta is cooked, remove from heat and drain water. In a large baking pan, layer 3 noodles, then ricotta mixture, then sauce, then cheese. Repeat. To keep cheese from dripping in your oven, place baking pan on a cookie sheet in oven. Bake at 375 degrees for 30-40 minutes. Keeps a long time in the freezer. Easy to reheat in microwave!
