Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 26 oz jar of spaghetti sauce
  • cup water
  • 24 oz container cottage cheese
  • ¼ cup parmesan cheese
  • 1 egg
  • 1 Tbsp dry parsley
  • 3 cups mozzarella cheese
  • 10 lasagna noodles uncooked

Instructions
 

  • Brown hamburger in a large skillet over medium high heat; drain off any fat. Add garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes. Add spaghetti sauce and water. Heat through.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees and spray a 9x13"baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Combine cottage cheese, parmesan, egg, and parsley in a small bowl; stir till well mixed.
  • Layer a third of the meat sauce, half of the uncooked noodles, half of the cottage cheese mixture, and a third of the mozzarella in the pan. Repeat layers, ending with the remaining sauce and mozzarella.
  • Cover pan with aluminum foil and bake at 375° for about an hour. I like to take off the foil the last few minutes so the cheese browns on top.
  • Let lasagna sit for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

The flavor of this lasagna will vary according to the type of pasta sauce you use, so you may need to experiment with different brands/types till you find the one your family likes the best.
