Homemade Lasagna

Growing up my mom would make this dish at least every couple of weeks, if not once a week. Our family loved it! She would always serve with fresh salad and garlic bread. YUM!

What you'll need:

9 Lasagna Noodles (or more if you desire)
1 Jar Spaghettic Sauce (any kind you like & I think it's a 16oz jar)
1 Lb. Ground Beef (we always use lean ground beef)
1/4 C. Onion (Chopped)
3 C. Cheese (we always mixed mozerella and cheddar)
1 Egg (slightly beaten)
1 Container Cottage Cheese (we always use low-fat & I believe it's a 12 oz tub)
1 Container Sour Cream (again we always use low-fat & I believe it's a 12 oz tub)

The additions Mic and I have added:

Black Olives
Mushrooms
Pepper Jack Cheese

Time to prepare:
In a large pot filled about 3/4 the way with water cook lasagna noodles. In a large skillet brown hamburger and then stir in onions and sautee. Stir in spaghetti sauce, olives and mushrooms. In a medium size bowl mix cottage cheese, sour cream, and egg. In a 9x13 glass baking dish layer the sauce mix on the bottom followed by 3 noodles and then the cottage cheese mixture. Repeat this 2 more times. Layer the top with cheeses and additional olives and mushrooms. Bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes. Serve with salad, garlic bread, and/or any other side dish your heart desires!
