Ingredients

• 9 uncooked lasagna noodles
• 1 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced
• 1/4 cup chopped onion
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules
• 3/4 teaspoon garlic salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
• 2-1/2 cups fat-free milk
• 6 cups broccoli florets
• 1-1/2 cups (12 ounces) 1% cottage cheese

Preparation

Step 1

Cook noodles according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, saute mushrooms and onion in butter until tender. Add the flour, bouillon, garlic salt, pepper and thyme; stir until blended; gradually add milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Add broccoli; cook for 3-5 minutes. Stir in cottage cheese and three-fourths of the Swiss cheese. Drain noodles.
In a 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish coated with cooking spray, layer three noodles and a third of the sauce. Repeat layers twice.
Cover and bake at 350° for 35-40 minutes or until bubbly and broccoli is tender. Sprinkle with remaining Swiss cheese. Bake, uncovered, 5 minutes longer or until cheese is melted. Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting. Yield: 12 servings.
