I prepared this for a Cub Scout banquet. It was easy since there was nothing to do at the last minute but cut and serve. It was a big success.Todd Newman, La Porte, Texas Ingredients:
6 packages (16 ounces each) lasagna noodles |
10 pounds johnsonville® mild ground italian sausage |
10 medium onions, chopped |
30 garlic cloves, minced |

2/3 cup dried basil |
3 tablespoons ground nutmeg |
2 tablespoons fennel seed, crushed |
1 tablespoon salt |
1 tablespoon pepper |
