Sour Cream Lasagna

This Lasagna is really delicious. I find it much easier to make than traditional Lasagna with much more flavor. The whole family enjoys it! The friend who passed this recipe on did so verbally - she never measured her ingredients so after a little experimenting I have officially written down the recipe! This makes 1 13x9 pan full of lasagna!

Ingredients:
1 box of lasagna noodles
1 lb gound beef
1 lb italian sausage
1 16oz sour cream
1 7oz creme faiche
dried basil leaves
dried oregano leaves
1 lb mozzarella(you won't need it all)
1 lb cheddar(you won't need it all)
2 - 29oz cans of tomato sauce
sugar - to taste
water.

Brown your ground meat and italian sausage together in a pan. If you only have 1 pound of meat that will work but my family likes the combination. Drain off the grease. Transfer the cooked and drained meat into a larger pot. Add both cans of tomato sauce. Sprinkle oregano and basil on top of the sauce. Add 1 large spoon full of sugar to the sauce. After the sauce starts cooking you can taste it and decide if you want to add more oregano, basil or sugar. If you added 2 pounds of meat you will likely need to add about a cup of water to the sauce. Simmer the sauce an hour or longer. Taste and stir it often and add extra water, oregano, basil or sugar to your taste. While the sauce is cooking, grate the cheeses. Also, combine the sour cream and creme faiche together.

Assembling the lasagna:
Get a 13x9 pan and cover the bottom with sauce. I start with about a cup of sauce and sometimes add a bit more. Place lasagna noodles over the sauce. On top of the noodles spoon about a 1/3 or so of the sour cream mixture. The noodles should be covered. Next sprinkle a combination of cheddar and mozzarella on top of the sour cream mixture. Then you start another layer begininning with the sauce. Make sure you add enough sauce so that the noodles are covered entirely. If you don't the noodles with end up chewy. You should be able to do about 3 layers. After your 2nd or 3rd layer cover with a final layer of sauce and a final layer of mozzarella and cheddar. Cover and cook 1 hour at 350 degrees. After an hour cook for 15 minutes uncovered or until your final layer of cheese is all melted. Enjoy! PS - Save time and make 2 at a time and freeze one.
