Preparation
    Put olive oil in a large saucepan over med-high heat.
    Add onions, carrots,fennel, garlic, chopped red pepper and fry until onions and carrots are starting to soften and brown, approx 7-8 minutes.
    Add pasta sauce to pan along with ground red pepper.
    Reduce to a low heat and cover, cooking for approximately 15 minutes until veggies are tender.
    Be sure to stir occasionally.
    While that is cooking,mix your cheesesin a bowl, and add basil and italian seasoning and stir.
    Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F degrees.
    Then you will want to lightly grease a 3 qt baking dish.
    Proceed by lining the bottom of your dish with a single layer of lasgane noodles.
    Spread 1/3 of your sauce over the noodles and cover this with 1/2 of the crumbled meatloaf.
    Then top with 1/4 of the cheese mixture.
    (be sure to save some cheese mixture for the last layer on top!) Repeat exact layering 2 more times-- while alternating the directions of noodles at each level.
    Cover your dish with foil and bake 35-40 minutes.
    Proceed by taking the foil off and sprinkling the rest of the cheese mixture on top and bake 8 minutes or until lasgana is cooked through and top is bubbling.
    Let stand for a few minutes before serving.
    ENJOY!
