Dry lasagna noodles

Submitted by Kimberly Felix 

Ingredients: 

1 jar spaghetti sauce (or equivalent homemade sauce)

3 C cottage cheese

2 eggs

1 T parsley flakes

2-3 C mixed cheese (mozarella, parmesan, cheddar, your favorite)

What to Do:

Beat the eggs into the cottage cheese. Mix in parsley flakes.

Layer 3 times--

Noodles broken to fit bottom of pot

1/3 of your sauce

1 C cottage cheese mixture

1/3 of your cheese

Cook on high 1 hour, then turn to low for 3 hours, or leave on medium setting whole time.

Optional: Add in any extra lasagna favorites you might have. I have done spinach and olives, but I'm sure mushrooms or sausage would also be good.
