Potluck Lasagna
Description:
This is a favorite entrée at all our church functions. The committee always asks me to bring two pans, and it is one of the first dishes to be eaten!
Ingredients:
1-12 oz tub small curd cottage cheese
½ c grated Parmesan cheese
2 eggs, beaten
¼ c dried parsley
1 t. onion powder
½ t. dried basil
½ t. dried oregano
1/8 t. pepper
2 cups finely shredded mozzarella cheese
1-32 oz jar spaghetti sauce (Bertolli’s Roasted Garlic and Onion is what I use)
9 uncooked lasagna noodles
¼ cup water
1 pound ground beef, browned and drained
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 375.
In a large bowl, mix the first 8 ingredients until well blended. In another bowl, mix spaghetti sauce and ground beef.
In a 12x8x2 inch baking dish, spread ¾ cup of the meat sauce on the bottom. Layer 3 noodles on top of the sauce. Cover the noodles with 1/3 of the cheese mixture, then 1/3 of the meat mixture, then 1/3 of the mozzarella. Repeat the noodles, cheese meat, mozzarella layers until the pan is full. Pour water around the edge of the pan. Spray a piece of foil with cooking spray, and cover the pan, sprayed side down. (This will prevent the mozzarella from sticking to the foil.)
Bake 45 minutes. Uncover and bake 15 minutes more, until mozzarella is bubbly and browned slightly.
