DIRECTIONS<\/h2>\n

Preheat oven to 375\u00b0<\/p>\n

Cook pasta according to package instructions, rinse, and set aside. (Lay them separately on a cookie sheet)<\/p>\n

In a heavy saucepan brown the ground beef and Mexican sausage (remove from casing and break up with a fork) Mix in onion, red peppers, and garlic. Cook over medium heat until browned well, drain fat off.<\/p>\n

Add pasta sauce, tomato paste and season to taste with all-purpose blend. Add Mexican seasoning, cover, and simmer on med-low for 30 minutes. (For optimal flavor, cook sauce the day before)<\/p>\n

*OPTIONAL I add 1 tsp sugar<\/p>\n

While sauce is simmering, in a mixing bowl combine 1 bag of the mozzarella cheese, ricotta cheese, Romano, and Parmesan with a beaten egg, spinach, and parsley<\/p>\n

Add 1 c. meat sauce to the bottom of the baking dish, top with lasagna noodles, spoon on cheese mixture. Repeat. Finish with noodles topped with sauce and remaining mozzarella cheese.<\/p>\n

Cover and bake for 40 minutes. Uncover and add additional cheese if desired and bake another 10 minutes until lightly golden brown and bubbly.<\/p>\n

Allow resting 20 minutes before cutting.<\/p>\n

*I did have about a pint of sauce left. Put in the freezer bag for a quick lunch one day!<\/p>\n
