Simple Sausage Lasagna
When I saw a lasagna recipe that did not call for precooking the noodles, I was anxious to try this time-saving shortcut. Making some changes and additions to suit my taste, I developed this popular dish that I now call my own.
Ingredients
- 1 pound bulk pork sausage
- 1 jar (24 ounces) pasta sauce
- 1/2 cup water
- 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 3 cups 4% cottage cheese
- 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 to 2 tablespoons dried parsley flakes
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 9 uncooked lasagna noodles
- 3 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
Directions
- 1. Preheat oven to 375°. In a large skillet, cook sausage over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Stir in pasta sauce and water. Simmer, uncovered, 10 minutes. Meanwhile, combine next 8 ingredients.
- 2. Spread 1/2 cup meat sauce into a greased 13x9-in. baking dish. Layer with 3 noodles and a third of the cheese mixture, meat sauce and mozzarella cheese. Repeat layers twice.
- 3. Bake, covered, 45 minutes. Uncover; bake until a thermometer reads 160°, about 10 minutes. Let stand 15 minutes before cutting.
