Mary's Lasagna Casserole

Ingredients:

Oven ready lasagna noodles
Box of hamburger helper lasagna
Meat
Onions
Cheese – cheddar or mozzarella – whatever you have on hand
Onion powder
Garlic powder
Oregano
Hot sauce - optional
½ big can of tomato juice


To prepare:

Brown the hamburger and then add the onions – salt and pepper;
Heat up the tomato juice, hamburger helper spice packet, tsp of onion powder and tsp of garlic powder – and hot sauce if desired – we add Frank’s red hot sauce;
Cook 1/3 package of lasagna noodles broken up; when they are almost cooked add the hamburger helper noodles – cook and drain. If your using a lot of hamburger and it will fill more than a square sized casserole dish I’d cook ½ the box of oven ready lasagna noodles;
Add the hamburger to a casserole dish, add the noodles and the sauce, mix it all together and sprinkle the top with oregano and cover with your favourite cheese. We hid some pieces of cream cheese in it this time to see if it added some yummy goodness – was ok; but nothing special!

Cook on 350 for 40 minutes.
