CHEESY MEAT LASAGNA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F
• Boil and cook shells as directed
• Brown ground beef, season, and drain grease (reserve 1 tsp).
• Saute onions (or other vegetables in same pan using approx 1 tsp reserved grease -- add more if needed or use butter or other oil).
• combine ground beef, onions, and pasta sauce in same pan. cover and simmer on low while you prepare the rest of the meal. Stir occasionally.
• Mix cottage cheese, egg, then salt and pepper lightly. Mix well and add 2 cups cheese. Mix again.
• Spray a 13x9 inch baking pan and begin to layer in order -- shells, cottage cheese mix, meat sauce (repeat 3 times) and finish off by topping 1-2 cups mozzarella or Italian blend cheese onto lasagna.
• Bake for 20-30 minutes uncovered or until cheese is melted to your preference. I like to sprinkle an Italian blend seasoning or crushed red pepper on our individual servings. We serve this with garlic bread and a salad.
• Let stand approximately 20 minutes before cutting/serving (to set up or else it is too saucy). I use this time to make the salad and toast the garlic bread. This meal tastes even better the next day!
