Best Lasagna Ever from Pioneer Woman by Dee Siburt serves: 12	No ratings Rating Details Rate this recipe Printable View Print Index Cards

Ingredients:

1.50 lb

Ground beef

1 lb

Breakfast sausage

2 cloves

Garlic, minced

2 can

Whole tomatoes (14.5 oz)

2 C

Tomato paste (6oz)

2 Tbsp

Dried parsley

2 Tbsp

Dried basil

1 tsp

Salt

3 C

Cottage cheese

Eggs, beaten

1/2 C

Grated Parmesan cheese

2 Tbsp

Dried parsley

1 tsp

Salt

1 lb

Sliced mozzarella cheese

1 pkg

Lasagna noodles (10oz)

Directions:

Bring a large pot of water to a boil.

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.

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).

To assemble:
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.

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

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.
