Easy Lasagna Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 pound lean ground beef
• 1 (32 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce
• 32 ounces cottage cheese
• 3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
• 2 eggs eggs
• 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 teaspoons dried parsley
• salt to taste
• ground black pepper to taste
• 9 lasagna noodles
• 0.5 cup water

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and gather all the necessary ingredients.
2. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef until it's fully cooked and crumbly, approximately 8 to 10 minutes. Drain off any excess grease. Then, stir in the spaghetti sauce and let it simmer for 5 minutes.
3. In a large bowl, mix together the cottage cheese, 2 cups of mozzarella cheese, eggs, half of the grated Parmesan cheese, dried parsley, salt, and pepper.
4. Spread 3/4 cup of sauce evenly in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Layer with 3 uncooked lasagna noodles, followed by 1 3/4 cups of the cheese mixture, and 1/4 cup of sauce. Repeat these layers once more. Finish with the remaining 3 noodles, sauce, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheese. Carefully pour 1/2 cup of water around the edges of the dish. Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil.
5. Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking for another 10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Allow the lasagna to rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
6. Serve your homemade lasagna and enjoy!
