Ingredients

The Lady and Sons Lasagna, prepared, refrigerated overnight, and cut into 15 squares, recipe follows

Flour, for coating

2 eggs, beaten

Plain bread crumbs, for coating

Peanut oil, for frying

Directions

Heat the oil to 350 degrees F.

Dredge each square in flour then egg and then bread crumbs to coat. Fry for about 1 minute until golden brown.

The Lady and Sons Lasagna:

For the sauce:

2 cups canned, diced tomatoes

2 cups tomato sauce

1 cup water

1/2 cup onions, diced

1/2 cup green bell peppers, diced

2 cloves garlic, diced

1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley leaves

1 1/2 teaspoons Italian seasoning

1 1/2 teaspoons House Seasoning, recipe follows

1 1/2 teaspoons seasoning salt

1 1/2 teaspoons sugar

2 bay leaves

1 1/2 pounds ground beef

For the lasagna:

6 to 9 long strips lasagna noodles

12 ounces cottage cheese, mixed with 1 beaten egg and 1/2 cup Parmesan

1 cup grated Gruyere cheese

1 cup grated Swiss cheese

2 cups grated Cheddar

1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese

1 cup mozzarella, grated

Directions

For the sauce:

Combine the tomatoes, tomato sauce, water, onions, peppers, garlic, parsley, seasoning mixtures, sugar and bay leaves in a stockpot. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer, covered, for 1 hour. See Cook's Note*

Crumble the ground beef in a saucepan. Cook until no pink remains then drain off the fat. Add the ground beef to the stockpot. Simmer for another 20 minutes. Remove bay leaves. Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Drain and set aside.

*Cook's Note: If sauce is too thin, for your taste, you can thicken it up at this time by mixing 1 tablespoon of cornstarch and a 1/4 of a cup of cold water. Bring sauce back to a boil. Stir in cornstarch mixture, stirring constantly.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

For the lasagna:

Place a thin layer of sauce in the bottom of a 9 by 13 by 2-inch pan. Layer 1/3 of each; noodle; cottage cheese mixture, Gruyere, Swiss and Cheddar cheese. Pinch off small pieces of cream cheese and dot over the other cheeses. Add another layer of sauce. Repeat layering 2 to 3 times ending with sauce.

This may be covered and refrigerated. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from oven and top with mozzarella and continue to bake for another 10 to 15 minutes.

*Note: If lasagna has been refrigerated, bake for 40 minutes total.

House Seasoning:

1 cup salt

1/4 cup black pepper

1/4 cup garlic powder

Mix ingredients together and store in an airtight container for up to 6 months.

Yield: 1 1/2 cups
