CAROL'S LASAGNE

     LASAGNE-1 - A hearty lasagne with lots of meat and cheese

     Carol Angell and Juan Ochoa are old friends from  Tektronix.
     Her lasagne recipe is one of my favorites.

INGREDIENTS (Serves 8-12)
          SAUCE
     1 lb      lean hamburger
     1         medium onion, minced
     2         garlic cloves, minced
     1 lb      stewed tomatoes
     1 lb      tomato sauce
     6 oz      tomato paste
     1/4 tsp   sugar
     1 tsp     salt
     1 tsp     basil
     1 tsp     parsley
          CHEESE MIX
     2         eggs, beaten
     16 oz     ricotta cheese
     8 oz      small curd cottage cheese
     1/2 cup   grated romano cheese
     1 Tbsp    parsley flakes
     1 tsp     salt
     1 tsp     oregano
               pepper to taste
          MISCELLANEOUS
     10 oz     lasagne noodles (use enough noodles to cover  your
               baking dish 6 layers deep)
     1 tsp     salt for each quart of boiling water
     1 lb      mozzaralla cheese, grated

PROCEDURE
          (1)  Brown meat and drain off  fat.   Heat,  but  don't
               brown,    onions;    stir   in   remaining   sauce
               ingredients.  Simmer for about 30 minutes.

          (2)  Fill a very large pot with water.  Add  1  tsp  of
               salt  for each quart of water in the pot.  Add the
               lasagne noodles. Make sure that  you  cook  enough
               noodles  to cover a 13x9 baking pan 6 layers deep.
               Pre-heat oven to 350 deg. F.

          (3)  Grease the inside of the baking pan with  a  light
               vegetable  oil. Now make three filling layers. For
               each, put down 1/3 of the noodles, in two  layers.
               Then spread 1/3 of the ricotta mixture on the noo-
               dles.  Then sprinkle with 1/3  of  the  mozzaralla
               cheese. Finally, top with 1/3 of the sauce.
