Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees
In a large skillet, cook ground beef and sausage until browned. Drain fat. Add onions and garlic, sautéing with meat until fragrant (2-3 minutes). Add pasta sauce, diced tomatoes and mix well. Simmer for 20 minutes.
Cook pasta according to package, drain water, and rinse with cold water. Pour ½ of cooked pasta in a deep casserole. Cover pasta with half tomato meat sauce mixture, then half sour cream over the meat. Top with provolone cheese. Repeat the second layer; pasta, sauce, sour cream, ending with mozzarella cheese.
Cover and bake for 30-35 minutes.

Notes

Add a 4 ounce can of sliced mushrooms if you would like. Sometimes I also vary the ingredients, swapping the sour cream for ricotta cheese.
