Time 1h35m

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 pound ground beef
1/2 pound mild or spicy Italian sausage, casings removed if necessary
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 medium white onion, finely chopped
1 can (29 ounces) tomato sauce
1 can (12 ounces) tomato paste
2 teaspoons dried oregano leaves
1-1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 eggs
3 cups small curd cottage cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons dried parsley leaves
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 box (16 ounces) lasagna noodles (traditional, NOT no-boil)
Nonstick cooking spray
1 pound mozzarella cheese slices
Additional grated Parmesan cheese
Chopped fresh basil leaves

Steps:

  • Make the Meat Sauce: In large high-sided skillet, cook beef, sausage, garlic and onion over medium-high heat 10 to 12 minutes or until meat is cooked through, breaking up meat with back of spoon and stirring occasionally. Remove and discard any excess fat in pan.
  • Stir in tomato sauce, tomato paste, oregano and salt; heat to simmering over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile, make the Cheese Filling: Place eggs in large bowl and whisk until smooth. Add cottage cheese, Parmesan cheese, parsley, salt and pepper; stir until well combined.
  • Prepare noodles according to package directions; drain.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Spray 10 x 16-inch lasagna pan or large baking dish with nonstick spray. Arrange 1/4 of noodles in bottom of dish. Spread noodles with 1/4 of Cheese Filling. Arrange 1/4 of mozzarella cheese slices over Cheese Filling (you can rip the cheese slices into halves or thirds to arrange them easier). Spread 1/4 of Meat Sauce over mozzarella cheese slices. Repeat layers 3 more times.
  • Transfer to oven and bake 45 to 60 minutes or until edges are bubbly. Let rest 15 minutes before serving topped with additional Parmesan cheese and basil, if desired.
