The World's Best Lasagna

KatherineKatherine

I don’t know...looks like there it a lot of meat in this to be put in the “pasta, rice & grains” section...

ingredients

  • • 1-1/2 pound Ground Beef
  • • 1 pound Hot Breakfast Sausage
  • • 2 cloves Garlic, Minced
  • • 2 cans (14.5 Ounce) Whole Tomatoes
  • • 2 cans (6 Ounce) Tomato Paste
  • • 2 Tablespoons Dried Parsley
  • • 2 Tablespoons Dried Basil
  • • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • • 3 cups Lowfat Cottage Cheese
  • • 2 whole Beaten Eggs
  • • 1/2 cups Grated (not Shredded) Parmesan Cheese
  • • 2 Tablespoons Dried Parsley
  • • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • • 1 pound Sliced Mozzarella Cheese
  • • 1 package (10 Ounce) Lasagna Noodles
  • • (add 1/2 Teaspoon Salt And 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil To Pasta Water)

directions

  • 1

    Bring a large pot of water to a boil.

  • 2

    Meanwhile, in a large skillet or saucepan, combine ground beef, sausage, and garlic. Cook over medium-high heat until browned. Drain half the fat; less if you’re feeling naughty. Add tomatoes, tomato paste, 2 tablespoons parsley, basil and salt. Set aside.

  • 3

    In a medium bowl, mix cottage cheese, beaten eggs, grated Parmesan, 2 more tablespoons parsley, and 1 more teaspoon salt. Stir together well. Set aside. Cook lasagna until “al dente” (not overly cooked).

  • 4

    To assemble:

  • 5

    Arrange 4 cooked lasagna noodles in the bottom of a baking pan, overlapping if necessary. Spoon half the cottage cheese mixture over the noodles. Spread evenly. Cover cottage cheese with a layer of mozzarella cheese. Spoon a little less than half the meat mixture over the top.

  • 6

    Repeat, ending with meat mixture. Sprinkle top generously with extra Parmesan.

  • 7

    Either freeze, refrigerate for up to two days, or bake immediately: 350-degree oven for 20 to 30 minutes, or until top is hot and bubbly.
