Like others suggested, I used 1 lb ground beef and 1 lb Italian sausage. I browned them together with 2 cloves of diced garlic and some onion. I also added an egg to the cottage cheese. This was so wonderful. I can't believe I have never made lasagna before, but I will definitely put it on my dinner rotation now with this recipe. Also a great place to hide extra veggies so the kids don't pick them out!

I made this for Christmas eve last year. The nice part was that I fixed it the day before and just took it out of the frig an hour before I was ready to bake it. My daughter-in-law asked for the recipe. The was a pretty good compliment!

This is very simple, and we loved it. My husband does not like pasta dishes, and this was my way of using up half a box of lasagne noodles and some meat sauce in the freezer. It was good enough that I'll be making it again soon.

Very nice recipe and so easy. I put the noodles in warm water (they always break up when boiled, and the oven-ready are $$$) for a few hours, then layer and refrigerate overnight.

Really Good base! I added Ricotta cheese to the cottage cheese mix and also added some oregano and fresh garlic and mushrooms to the sauce mix! Everyone seems to love it!

This deserves 5 stars for teaching me the concept of overnight no-cook lasagnas without spending more on the no-cook lasagna sheets. HOWEVER!!! I prefer this made in a 10x15 pan, with 6 sheets to each layer, and I like to make 1.5 batches (i.e. in 3 layers). Very very good!

Wonderful! Only things I did different was used 16 oz. of cheese, added an egg to the cottage cheese, and added some dried basil and a little minced garlic while cooking the meat. I'm sure the sauce plays a huge roll in the flavor. I used Hunts Meat Sauce. It was perfect AND is only $1 a can! I used a 8x11 pan so everything was snug and stayed together. Just a note: in the past I've used low-fat cottage cheese and it turns watery. This time I used the full-fat small curd and the flavor and texture were perfect. I also used no-boil lasagna, but I always soak them in hot water for about 40 minutes before using them. Just a little tip I've heard along the way and it really does ensure they cook through. NOTE: The Oven-Ready lasagna noodles at Walmart are under $1.50!

I followed all instructions and ingredients except for the pan - I used a slightly smaller and deeper pan, so the lasagna was three layers. It turned out Perfect

I found it cost effective quick and simple what else can you ask for. I let it set in the fridge for 2 nights do to circumstances out of my control and it worked out fine. It had great flavor too.

Wonderful! I had weekend guests and this made for an easy meal. We really liked it! Changes I made were to use substitute sausage for part of the meat. I also used some Italian seasoning.
