Combine remaining ingredients for filling. 

Pour 1 cup meat sauce into a 9 x 13-inch pan. (Using a ½ measuring cup makes all the steps eaiser.) Layer 3 uncooked lasagna noodles over sauce.  Cover with 1 ½ cups meat sauce.  (½ cup over each lasagna noodle) 

Spread half of cheese filling over sauce.

Repeat layers: lasagna noodles, sauce, cheese filling.  Top with a layer of lasagna noodles.  Pour remaining sauce over top.

1/3 cup Milk

1 can Tomato Soup

1 can Zesty Tomato Soup

Mix ground meat, rice, and milk. If desired, season with salt, pepper, chopped onions, celery, and green pepper or creole seasoning. Form mixture into balls about 1-1/2 to 2 inches in diameter. Put in a covered casserole dish. Pour tomato soups and 1 can of water over the meat balls. Cook slowly (250 degrees) for 1-1/2 hours. Check rice for doneness.

*** Can also be added - saute onions and bell peppers to add to the riceballs.
