vicki's three-cheese garlic lasagna
I started out with a lasagna recipe given to me by my sister-in-law probably 30 years ago. Through the years, I have changed just about everything and made this recipe my own. The original recipe didn't have any garlic in it at all, a small jar of mushrooms and only 8 oz of noodles. It also had less hamburger. Anyway, this one is mine and everyone who tries it loves it. My husband swears it's the best lasagna he has ever eaten! Please give it a try! You won't be sorry!

How To Make vicki's three-cheese garlic lasagna
-
Step 1Boil lasagna noodles per package instructions. Chop onion very fine. (I use my food processor on the CHOP setting).
-
Step 2While the noodles are boiling, brown the hamburger in a large skillet and drain the grease. Add the spaghetti sauce, tomato sauce, onion, garlic, salt and mushrooms. Allow the sauce to cook together on medium low heat for at least 20 minutes to blend the flavors.
-
Step 3When noodles are finished cooking, rinse them thoroughly in cold water to prevent them from sticking.
-
Step 4Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a large lasagna casserole dish with nonstick spray.
-
Step 5Begin by adding a layer of noodles, overlapping them in the dish.
-
Step 6Then evenly spread on half of the cottage cheese.
-
Step 7Sprinkle on 2 cups of Mozzarella cheese evenly on top.
-
Step 8Next spoon on half the sauce mixture and spread evenly.
-
Step 9Repeat above steps beginning with the noodles and ending with the sauce mixture.
-
Step 10Top with 2 cups mild cheddar cheese.
-
Step 11Bake at 350 degrees F for 35 minutes.
