How to Make Sausage Peppers Lasagna

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Brown 1 lb Italian sausage, 1 medium onion (chopped), and 2 bell peppers (chopped) in a large skillet over medium-high heat until sausage is cooked through and vegetables are tender. Drain off any excess grease.
  3. In a medium bowl, beat 8 oz cream cheese and 1/2 cup milk with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
  4. Combine 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese and 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese. Reserve 1 1/2 cups of the cheese mixture.
  5. Add the remaining cheese mixture to the cream cheese mixture and mix well.
  6. Return the sausage mixture to the skillet. Stir in 24 oz jar of your favorite spaghetti sauce and 1 tsp dried oregano.
  7. Add 1/2 cup of water to the empty spaghetti sauce jar, cover, and shake well to loosen any remaining sauce. Stir this into the meat sauce.
  8. Spread 1/3 of the meat sauce in the bottom of a 13x9-inch baking dish.
  9. Layer with 3 lasagna noodles, half of the cream cheese mixture, and then 3 more noodles.
  10. Top with the remaining meat sauce and 3 more noodles.
  11. Cover with the remaining cream cheese mixture, the reserved 1 1/2 cups of cheese blend, and then the final 3 noodles.
  12. Cover the baking dish with foil sprayed with cooking spray.
  13. Bake for 1 hour, or until heated through. Remove the foil during the last 15 minutes of baking.
  14. Let stand for 15 minutes before cutting and serving.
