Easy Lasagna

1- 24 oz jar spaghetti sauce (or make your own)

1 lb. ground beef

1 clove garlic, pressed*

1/2 onion, minced*

Basil (fresh or dried)

Lasagna noodles (6-9, about 1/2 a box)

8 oz. cottage cheese

2-3 eggs

1 lb. shredded mozzarella cheese

8 oz. grated parmesan cheese

Brown ground beef with onion and garlic, drain.

Add spaghetti sauce and basil, simmer for 15-30 minutes.

In a separate bowl, mix cottage cheese and eggs.

Cook lasagna in boiling water for 10 minutes. Once the noodles are cooked run under cold water. (They will be easier to handle and won't stick)

In a large casserole dish, layer lasagna, meat, then both cheeses. Continue to layer until dish is full. A layer of meat then cheese should be on the top.

Bake at 350 degrees covered with foil for 30 minutes. Then remove foil and bake for 15 minutes.

*I used dried onion and garlic and it still tasted great

I used a 9x13 pan and was only able to do two layers. If you do more than two layers you'll need more then 6 noodles.
