• 2 cans (6 Ounce) Tomato Paste
• 2 Tablespoons Dried Parsley

• 3 cups Lowfat Cottage Cheese
• 2 whole Beaten Eggs
• 1/2 cups Grated (not Shredded) Parmesan Cheese
• 2 Tablespoons Dried Parsley

Directions

1. Preparation Instructions

2. Bring a large pot of water to a boil.

3. Meanwhile, in a large skillet or saucepan, combine ground beef, sausage, and garlic. Cook over medium-high heat until browned. Drain half the fat; less if you’re feeling naughty. Add tomatoes, tomato paste, 2 tablespoons parsley, basil and salt. After adding the tomatoes, the sauce mixture should simmer for 45 minutes while you are working on the other steps.

4. In a medium bowl, mix cottage cheese, beaten eggs, grated Parmesan, 2 more tablespoons parsley, and 1 more teaspoon salt. Stir together well. Set aside. Cook lasagna until “al dente” (not overly cooked).

5. To assemble:

6. Arrange 4 cooked lasagna noodles in the bottom of a baking pan, overlapping if necessary. Spoon half the cottage cheese mixture over the noodles. Spread evenly. Cover cottage cheese with a layer of mozzarella cheese. Spoon a little less than half the meat/sauce mixture over the top.

7. Repeat, ending with meat/sauce mixture. Sprinkle top generously with extra Parmesan.

8. Either freeze, refrigerate for up to two days, or bake immediately: 350-degree oven for 20 to 30 minutes, or until top is hot and bubbly.
