Awesome recipe. I replaced the cottage cheese with ricotta and it worked perfectly. I freeze my leftovers in single portions and it reheats incredibly well. I do add some basil, oregano, as well as a few fresh mushrooms when I add the sauce to the meat and I've had great results.

Loved it, made it just as directed. Only problem I had was that there was just not enough meat sauce for me. Flavor was fab and the kiddos loved it too.

This was so yummy! I have made it twice in the past 2 weeks. It taste delicious after refrigeration and freezing, as well. I am cooking at high altitude (7200 ft) and put about 1/4 cup more water than the recipe called for. As other reviews said, the cheese mixture was too much. With that in mind, however, just load up the layers with more cheese mixture than you'd think you would need to. I replaced the cottage cheese with ricotta (I'm a purist) and added minced garlic and basil to the sauce and let it simmer with the added spices and beef for about 30 minutes instead of five. Fantastic!

I rarely follow a recipe to the T but I did this time. It was sooo easy to make and the clean up was soooo easy. I'm huge on clean up because I hate it so much. I prepared this in probably 10-15 minutes. And last but not least the taste was really, really good. I was hesitant to use cottage but I had to use the ingredients on hand - it turned out awesome! And the pickiest eater EVER - my husband LOVE LOVE LOVED it. We were both really suprised at how much he liked it. I also even forgot to add onion and garlic and it turned out well. Oh yeah I also preboiled my noodles a little and still added water. I probably won't add the water next time.

Great, easy recipe. I added onion and garlic powder to the beef while cooking and also sprinkled some Lowry's on the beef. I used an additional cup of sauce but only 22 ounces of cottage cheese. I reduced the water to 1/4 cup. Easy and my kids and husband loved it.

Really good simple lasagna. Kids loved it because there wasn't anything green in it and it wasn't over-spiced!

OK....I triedto listen to the advice of others. I made sure that I added extra sauce so it wouldn't dry out. But then it turned out pretty runny. And there was no way that only 9 noodles were going to cover it all. So I had to use 12. It fell apart pretty east but no one really complained much. I would try this again with a tad less sauce than I used this time. ((It was wonderful the next day though!!))

5 stars for ease of preparation and good taste/consistency. I've also made it subbing 1 cup thawed, drained spinach for the ricotta/cottage cheese--very nice and not as rich.

This lasagna recieved rave reviews, "best lasagna I ever had!" I used fat free cottage cheese which made it a bit runnier. I also cooked the noodles al dente beforehand. Delicious!

My husband loves lasagna so I have been searching for a good recipe so I could make it for him. Since finding this recipe a few months ago I have made it 4 times. My husband loves it!!! The only changes I made was adding chopped onions and minced garlic to the meat while I browned it. This is so yummy and worth trying!!!!

So easy! I used ricotta cheese except for cottage cheese, and also used ground turkey for ground beef. We both loved it! I also used a lot of fresh garlic.
