Preparation
Step 1
Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
In a large skillet or saucepan, combine ground beef, sausage, and garlic.
Cook over medium-high heat until browned.
Drain half or less of the fat.
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.
