LASAGNA WITH SAUCY SAUSAGE, PEPPERS & ONIONS
DH loves his lasagna with meat and lots of sauce. So if you like it that way this ones for you! I've made this with uncooked noodles and cooked. You pick! I find the uncooked ones a bit starchy but it's quick and easy. If using cooked noodles you can cut back on the sauce. The uncooked noodles will absorb the sauce. But be sure to let it sit for 15 minutes before cutting into it. I use a deep pan so it doesn't flow over.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add the sausages and cook until brown on both sides, about 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from the pan and drain.
- Keeping the pan over medium heat, add the peppers, onions, salt, and pepper and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add the oregano, basil, and garlic and cook 2 more minutes.
- Add the tomato paste and stir. Add the Marsala wine, tomatoes, and chili flakes, if using. Stir to combine, scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon to release all the browned bits. Bring to a simmer.
- Cut the sausages into 4 to 6 pieces each, about 1-inch cubes. Add the sausage back to the pan and stir to combine. Cook until the sauce has thickened, about 20 minutes.
- Serve in bowls. Or, if serving as a sandwich, split the rolls in half lengthwise. Hollow out the bread from the bottom side of each roll, being careful not to puncture the crust. Fill the bottom half of the roll with sausage mixture. Top and serve sandwiches immediately.

SAUSAGE-PEPPERONI LASAGNA
If you're counting calories and/or cholesterol, you'll want to skip this one. On the other hand, if you want your kids to kiss your feet and promise to do their homework, you might try it. :) My children are grown now, but they (and their friends) still beg for it. The original recipe, which I've modified slightly, was printed in Southern Living many years ago. Don't let the fractions throw you. Just 'guesstimate', saving enough for the top layer that it doesn't dry out. Serve with a salad and garlic bread and eat 'til you pop!

Steps:
- Brown sausage thoroughly in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring to crumble; drain well.
- Return sausage to skillet and add spaghetti sauce, stirring well to mix.
- Cook lasagna noodles according to package directions, except omit salt if called for.
- While pasta cooks, break egg into mixing bowl and beat lightly.
- Add ricotta, parsley, oregano, pepper and grated Parmesan to beaten egg, stirring well to mix.
- When lasagna is done, pour into a colander and run cold running water over the noodles.
- (Be sure not to skip this step. They stick together something awful and will be impossible to layer if you don't rinse away all the starch.) Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Lightly grease a 9" x 13" baking dish on bottom and sides with margarine.
- Spoon a small amount of meat sauce into dish, spreading to coat lightly.
- (Use 1/2 cup or less-- just enough to prevent the bottom layer of noodles from sticking. It should be more like a'film' than a layer.) Place half the noodles in bottom of dish, overlapping slightly if necessary.
- Spoon half the ricotta mixture on top, using a rubber spatula to spread evenly over all.
- Sprinkle with 1/3 of mozzarella.
- Spoon on 1/3 the remaining meat sauce.
- Repeat layers.
- Cover top of dish with pepperoni slices.
- Pour remaining meat sauce over all, spreading evenly.
- Bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes.
- Remove from oven and sprinkle remaining mozzarella on top.
- Bake an additional 5 minutes, or until cheese has melted.
- Let stand 10 minutes before cutting into squares and serving.
- (It won't affect the taste if you don't let it'rest', but it will be terribly runny instead of cutting nicely.).

Tips:
- Use a variety of sausages. This will give your lasagna a more complex flavor. Italian sausage, sweet Italian sausage, and chorizo are all good options.
- Sauté the peppers and onions before adding them to the lasagna. This will help to caramelize them and bring out their sweetness.
- Use a good quality pasta sauce. This is the foundation of your lasagna, so make sure it's flavorful and delicious.
- Don't overcook the lasagna. The noodles should be al dente, or slightly firm to the bite.
- Let the lasagna rest for at least 15 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the lasagna to set.
Conclusion:
Sausage and peppers lasagna is a hearty and flavorful dish that is perfect for a family meal. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a delicious and satisfying dinner, give this recipe a try.
