Heat large 12-inch skillet oven over medium-high heat. Add beef, Italian sausage and onions and cook, stirring occasionally until beef is browned.
Next, add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes (optional) and saute for another minute or two. If necessary, drain off any excess fat.
Add your favorite sauce (homemade or jarred), 4 cups chicken broth, stewed tomatoes, sugar, spices and broken lasagna noodles. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer until lasagna noodles are tender, stirring occasionally; approximately 25-30 minutes.
If desired, stir in a little extra chicken stock (or water) to reach desired consistency.
Garnish with cheese and serve hot.
Notes
If you have a pre-mixed Italian Seasoning blend, you can substitute 1 1/2 - 2 tablespoons of the Italian Seasoning Blend for the 1 tablespoon dried basil, 1 teaspoon dried parsley, & 1 teaspoon dried oregano.
