Lazy Lasagna (Updated Mueller's Recipe)

Submitted by Artboy34

"This recipe came off the back of a package of Mueller's Egg Noodles sometime in the 60s or 70s. It was a real time-saver, as well as a tasty dish to throw together for a potluck or church supper. Some of the ingredient sizes have been adjusted to present-day packaging, but the ingredients are the same as the original recipe."
