Tasty Tuesday: Easy Lasagna Recipe

I made my favorite lasagna recipe last night for dinner. Lasagna was my favorite food growing up, and this is the recipe my mom always used. I remember making a bulletin board about myself in the 4th grade, and I put up a box of lasagna noodles to represent my favorite food. I am putting this recipe out there, so you can enjoy this super easy, delicious dinner!

Lasagna
1 box oven ready lasagna noodles
1 tub cottage cheese (16 oz)
1 egg
1 lb hamburger
1 large jar spaghetti sauce (sometimes I use about 1/4-1/3 of a 2nd jar of sauce just to have enough)
1 lb Mozzarella cheese, grated

Fry hamburger till brown and add spaghetti sauce. Set aside. Add egg to tub of cottage cheese and stir well. Layer in a 9x13 pan as follows:
Thin layer of sauce mixture
½ of noodles
cottage cheese and egg mixture
½ of sauce mixture
½ of grated cheese
other ½ of noodles
other ½ of sauce mixture
other ½ grated cheese
If desired, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

I will usually make it the night before so it can sit in the fridge and the noodles soften better. If you do this, take it out of the fridge about ½ hour before putting it in the oven. Cover with tinfoil and bake at 375 for 45 minutes. Let sit about 10 or 15 minutes before serving.

I like to serve my lasagna with garlic bread and a green salad. Enjoy!
