  I use this recipe from mealsmatter. org but I use whole wheat lasagna noodles and homemade spaghetti sauce. You can add meat to it if you like and roasted vegetables like yellow squash and zucchini make excellent additions. I use ground turkey to make homemade sausage and add to this recipe. It's very tasty and still pretty low in fat.
  
  2 cups Low-fat cottage cheese
  1 Egg or equivalent egg substitute
  2 cups Low-fat mozzarella shredded
  1 jar Spaghetti sauce (32oz)
  1 pkg Frozen chopped spinach (10oz)
  9 Uncooked lasagna noodles
  1 cup Water
  1/8 teaspoon Pepper
  3/4 teaspoon Oregano
  Salt to taste
  
  In a large bowl mix thawed and drained spinach, cottage cheese, 1 cup mozzarella, egg and seasonings. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray Pam on a lasagna tray or 13x9x2 baking dish. Layer 1/2 cup sauce, 3 noodles and 1/2 cheese mixture. Repeat layer. Top with remaining noodles then sauce and sprinkle with 1 cup of mozzarella. You can also sprinkle grated parmesan cheese on top. Pour water around the edges and put a few toothpicks on top. (If you choose to use cooked noodles, you don't have to add water.) This will prevent the cheese from sticking to the foil. Cover with foil and bake for 1 hour- 1 hour 15 minutes, or until lasagna is bubbly. Let stand for 15 minutes before serving.
