1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp sugar
6 medium potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

In a large skillet, cook the beef, sausage, onion, pepper and salt over 
medium heat until meat is no longer pink.
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine the soup, milk, tomato sauce,
garlic powder, oregano and sugar.
Bring to a boil.
Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes or until heated through.
Drain meat mixture; spoon half into a greased 13x9x2" baking dish.
Layer with half of the potatoes.
Repeat layers.
