Ingredients

How to make it

  • In a skillet, combine 1 1/2 pounds ground beef, 1 pound hot breakfast sausage, and 2 cloves minced garlic. Cook until brown
  • Drain off about half the fat. I like to leave some in there, though, because it tastes better.
  • Add spaghetti sauce, 2 tablespoons of dried parsley flakes, 2 tablespoons dried basil and 1 teaspoon salt.
  • Mix together thoroughly and simmer, uncovered, about 45 minutes. Stirring occasionally.
  • For the cheese mixture, mix 3 cups lowfat cottage cheese in a bowl with 2 beaten eggs..
  • To the cottage cheese, add 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese, 2 tablespoons dried parsley flakes, and 1 teaspoon salt. Mix together well.
  • Let the assembly begin! Lay four cooked lasagna noodles in the bottom of the pan, overlapping as you go.
  • Spread half of the cottage cheese mixture evenly over the noodles.
  • Then lay 1/2 pound of mozzarella cheese slices on top of the cottage cheese mixture.
  • Spread a little less than half of the meat mixture over the mozzarella cheese slices until it’s evenly distributed.
  • Now it’s time to repeat the process! Add another layer of four lasagna noodles.
  • And top with the remaining half of the cottage cheese mixture.
  • Then top the cottage cheese mixture with another 1/2 pound of mozzarella.
  • And finish with the rest of the meat mixture.
  • Top with a pretty generous layer of Parmesan Cheese.
  • Now pop it in a 350-degree oven for 20-30 minutes, until hot and bubbly.
