Saturdays and Mrs. Elizabeth lasagna

I love Saturdays at our house. You never know what we will do (if anything) but I always enjoy spending time with my family and catching up on rest. Since I worked last night I spent a good bit of my day sleeping but that did not keep Josh and the girls from having a busy day together. This morning Josh took Amery and registered her for Upward soccer. For those not familiar with Upward it is a sports group that teaches the kids how to play the game while also incorporating devotional time. The don't keep score in the games because they just want the kids to learn how to play and enjoy playing. Needless to say my little red head is VERY excited about this. Then we had a wonderful visit with my inlaws. We just love having Mamaw and Papaw come visit and play :). Tonight I left the brunette with Daddy for some one on one time and took the red head with me to the grocery store. I do not know who enjoys those times more... the kids or the parents.

So now for a recipe. This recipe is referred to as Mrs Elizabeth lasagna. Mrs. Elizabeth is a wonderful lady from our church and the brunette's preschool teacher. When the brunette was born Mrs. Elizabeth provided a meal to our family and it was such a hit I had to get the recipe. It is almost always on our biweekly menu.

4 ounces of egg noodles boiled and drained
1 pound of hamburger browned and drained
1 cup of spaghetti sauce
8 ounces of cream cheese
8 ounces of cottage cheese
4 ounces of sour cream
2 cups of mozzarella cheese

Place boiled and drained egg noodles in the bottom of a square casserole dish. Combine cream cheese, cottage cheese and sour cream and spread over noodles. Combine spaghetti sauce and hamburger meat and pour over cheese mixture top with shredded mozzarella and bake at 350 for 30 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbly.

I love to mix this in the morning and refrigerate it so the flavors have more time to blend... if you do this just increase baking time. We serve this with garlic cheese bread and a vegetable. Enjoy!
