MEAT BALL LASAGNA
It was quite the treat to bite into a meatball to discover which flavor meatball you would get - beef or sausage. Both were very good! A great twist on regular lasagna. We used four (4) 24 oz. jars of sauce when trying this dish out.

Steps:
- 1. Make meatballs by combining ground round, Parmesan cheese, egg and Italian bread crumbs.
- 2. Make small meat balls just under one inch around.
- 3. Line 2 cookie sheets with aluminum foil, spray with Pam (no cleanup). Place meat balls in a single layer, go ahead and chunk your sausage in chunks the size of the meat balls, and put them in a single layer too.
- 4. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 20 minutes, then put into your marinara sauce.
- 5. At this point I usually put sauce and meat in my slow cooker, lined with a disposable liner, and cook on low for 8 hours. If you opted for a purchased sauce, put meatballs and sausage in your sauce, and simmer for an hour.
- 6. Cook lasagna noodles, drain.
- 7. Mix ricotta and eggs, set aside.
- 8. Spray lasagna pan with Pam.
- 9. Put a layer of just sauce in bottom of pan. Cover with layer of lasagna noodles.
- 10. Put a layer of sauce and meatballs and sausage, put blobs of ricotta mixture randomly, sprinkle a third of mozarella.
- 11. Repeat layer.
- 12. Cover with a layer of lasagna noodles, and then sauce.
- 13. Cover tightly and cook on low 325 degrees for 3 hours.
- 14. Last 10 minutes, sprinkle remainder of mozarella.
- 15. When you remove from the oven, allow to set for 15 minutes before you cut into it.
- 16. One more thing. I always make my sauce and meatballs the day before. Putting hot sauce on hot noodles might result in watery lasagna. Make sure the lasagna noodles are well drained also.
