Regular pasta can be a more budget-friendly alternative.

Put a saucepan on the stove and fill it with water.

Add 1 teaspoon of salt and 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the water.

Stir well and bring to the boil.

Add 8 ounces of pasta to the boiling water and stir again to prevent sticking.

Cook until tender.

Finely chop one onion.

Heat a frying pan over medium heat and add olive oil.

Add the chopped onion and fry until soft.

Grate 2 cloves of garlic and add to the onions.

Slice 6 mushrooms and add them to the frying pan, cooking until soft.

Add 14 ounces of ground beef to the pan and season with 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1 teaspoon of oregano.

Cook until the beef is browned and cooked through.

Remove the pasta from the heat and drain the water.

Take a baking dish and grease it with olive oil.

Place the first layer of pasta in the baking dish.

Then place a layer of ground beef on top of the pasta.

Place another layer of pasta, followed by another layer of ground beef, pressing down gently to even out the layers.

Beat 3 eggs in a bowl and add 2 ounces of sour cream, stirring until smooth.

Pour this mixture over the casserole.

Grate 5 ounces of cheese and sprinkle it on top of the casserole.

Bake the casserole in the oven preheated to 360°F (180°C) for 25 minutes or until the top is golden and bubbling.

Prepare the salad by putting green salad leaves into a bowl.

Slice half of a green pepper and add it to the bowl.

Toss the salad gently.
