MUSHROOM, SAUSAGE AND ROASTED RED PEPPER LASAGNA WITH YOUR SAUCE
I started making this when someone gave me a jar of roasted red pepper sauce from a gourmet deli, now I create my own. The flavor combination cannot be beat! If you regularly have containers of homemade marinara in your freezer then you'll love this. Great with a green salad and garlic vinaigrette like my Recipe #225142. Serve a big, bold red wine with this and you can't go wrong!

- If you can't find lasagna noodles, you can use any other type of flat pasta, such as fettuccine or linguine.
- Be sure to use a large baking dish, as the lasagna will expand as it cooks.
- Cover the lasagna with aluminum foil while it bakes to prevent the top from getting too brown.
- Let the lasagna rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the flavors to meld and the lasagna to set.
