    Recipe



    Sauce: Brown ground beef and drain. Add remaining sauce ingredients to browned ground beef and stir, bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 25 minutes. Set aside.

    Filling: Combine all of the filling ingredients in large bowl and stir to mix well. Set aside.

    Assembly: Coat a 9x13 pain with cooking spray. Spoon 1 cup of the sauce over bottom of pan. Lay 4 uncooked noodles over the bottom of the pan (3 lengthwise and one crosswise). Allow a little space between noodles for expansion. Top noodles with half of the filling mixture, 3/4 cup of mozzarella, and 1 1/2 cups of sauce. Repeat the noodles, filling, mozzarella and sauce layers. Finally top with remaining noodles, sauce, Parmesan and mozzarella. At this point you can freeze.

    To prepare: Thaw overnight. Cover the pain with aluminum foil and bake at 350¼ F for 45 minutes, remove foil and bake for 15 more minutes or until the edges are bubbly and the top is brown. Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes before cutting and serving.
