Dutch Oven Lasagna

Cooking a meal for a dozen in Indian Creek.
A Dutch Oven dinner after a hard day of
climbing is always a crowd pleaser. 
This is a crowd pleasing meal that is easy to create on any camping adventure that does not required you caring your gear/supplies on your back. 1 Box- Lasagna Noodles, hole, dry15 oz- Ricotta cheese79.5 oz- Spaghetti Sauce6 oz- Olives1 lb.- Mushrooms, fresh32 oz- Mozzarella Cheese1 oz- Oregano1­ oz- Garlic16 oz- Ground Beef10 oz- Hot Sausage1 oz- Parmesan cheese, graded
Serving Directions- If possible let the lasagna set-up and cook for 40 min. Then cut into 2-4 inch serving sizes. Garnish with fresh mushrooms and graded Parmesan cheese.
