I’ve been wanting to find a cheeseburger pasta recipe that’s simple and good. Well, I have.

I used a little less mustard, more onion, added some Worcestershire and more cheese. Turned out very tasty.

As part of the kitchen reno, we're going through the recipes from our mom's. So many greats from years past. But here's an easy one that is quite tasty, although it is not from one of our moms' collection. As you can see it is a well-loved recipe.
Classic. We make a variation much like this I got from my uncle's.

Tried a new marinara tonight - Mezzetta. Excellent, tons of fresh, bright tomato flavor. Maybe better than Rao’s and a couple bucks cheaper.
Ingredients: Italian Plum Tomatoes From Italy's San Marzano Region, California Plum Tomatoes, Imported Olive Oil, Fresh Onions, Sea Salt, Fresh Garlic, Fresh Basil, Black Pepper, Spices.

Nice! How’d you like it?
Well, I didn't follow the instructions perfectly. I let it cook, covered for longer than your recipe suggests for "immediate serving". I gave it the full 40 min.
TO SERVE:
Adjust an oven rack to the middle position and pre-heat oven to 400 degrees. Unwrap the dish and cover tightly with aluminum foil that has been sprayed with vegetable oil spray (or use nonstick foil). Place a rimmed baking sheet under the dish to catch any overspill. Bake until the sauce bubbles lightly around the edges, 30 to 40 minutes. Remove foil and continue to bake until hot throughout and the cheese is browned in spots, 25-35 minutes longer. Let cool for 10 minutes before cutting and serving.
TO SERVE RIGHT AWAY:
Follow instructions above, reducing covered baking time to 15 minutes.
I think the cream and the basil give a nice touch - almost has a sweetness to it.
Most importantly, Mrs. George approves.

Made it last night, but used a chicken demi-glace instead off stock. Very rich.

We're gonna get at least (probably 4) meals out of this.
Yup - four meals it was. I divided into fourths and froze the uneaten ones.
Simple dinner tonight:
Thaw the lasagna, and heat it up (covered) in the oven.
Some salad.
Some "Bake in the bag" bread.Simple and tasty.
The hour I spent making the lasagna is more than offset by the fact that I don't have to cook for three nights.

Had a dream the other night that Trump had us selling homemade marinara and he wasn't happy with the sales figures. I had a lot of one-on-one time with him in the dream.
Marinara And Garlic for All, FTW
