Method

In a big fry pan brown hamburger meat and sausage. [Before I brown the sausage, I remove the casings and break the meat off in big hunks and throw it in the pan.] Add the 2 T. butter/margarine, garlic, salt and pepper. Add mushrooms and onions; cook until meat is no longer pink and vegetables are cooked. Add the black olives when everything is cooked. Add spaghetti sauce; drain the diced tomatoes and add to pot and then add water. Cover; simmer on low about 1/2 hour, stirring occasionally, to desired consistency. Add more water while cooking, if it seems too thick. Filling: Mix all 6 filling ingredients together. [This is the filling between the noodles and sauce.] In a 13x9 dish or pan, first put a layer of meat sauce, then a layer of uncooked noodles, and a layer of filling. Alternate layers, making the last layer the sauce. Then add more shredded mozzarella cheese and parmesan cheese on top; sprinkle with parsley. Bake at 350 degrees, covered with foil, about 30 minutes. Take foil off and bake for 20 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
