Add the ground beef and sausage. Stir frequently to ensure even browning. Add the pepperoni, tomatoes, tomato paste, oregano, salt, pepper, garlic, onion and 2 cups of water. Bring to a simmer and cook uncovered for 30 minutes, stirring frequently. In the meantime, set the oven @ 350ºF/175ºC. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the lasagna noodles according to the package directions. Drain and set aside. When the mixture is ready, spray a deep 13" X 9" baking dish with cooking spray. Spread one third of the sauce in an even layer over the bottom of the dish. Top with lasagna noodles, then one third of each of the ricotta, mozzarella and parmesan. Repeat these steps again, making sure you are portioning out accordingly so you have enough for each set of layers. Top with one additional layer of sauce, noodles and cheeses. Bake in the center of the oven, uncovered, for approximately 40 to 45 minutes. Allow the cowboy lasagna to rest for 10 to 15 minutes before serving. If the top has not browned by the end of the recommended cooking time, feel free to broil for 3 to 5 minutes to get a gorgeous golden lasagna. Just keep an eye on it!
