Ingredients

• 3/4 lb lean ground beef
• 2 eggs
• 2 cups cottage cheese
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 jar (32 oz) spaghetti sauce
• 1/4 cup water
• 1-1/2 teaspoons dried Italian herb seasoning, crushed
• 10 uncooked lasagna noodles
• 6 oz sliced mozzarella cheese

Preparation

Step 1

In a large microwavable bowl, break up ground beef. Cover with waxed paper. Microwave on High for 3-1/2-4 minutes or until beef loses most of its pink color, stirring and breaking up meat after 2 minutes. Drain well.

Meanwhile, in a separate bowl with a fork, beat eggs. Stir in cottage cheese and Parmesan cheese until blended; set aside.

To the drained meat, add spaghetti sauce, water and herb seasoning; stir until blended. In a 12x8x2 inch microwavable baking dish, layer 1-1/2 cups of sauce, 5 noodles, half of the cottage cheese mixture, mozzarella cheese slices, 1-1/2 cups of the sauce, remaining noodles, remaining cottage cheese mixture and remaining sauce. Cover tightly with plastic wrap, turning one corner back. Microwave on High for 8 minutes. Rotate 1/4 turn. Microwave on Medium for 30 minutes or until noodles are tender, rotating 1/2 turn after 15 minutes.

Top lasagna with mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Microwave uncovered on High for 1 minute. Remove from oven. Cover tightly with foil and let stand for 15 minutes or until set.
