This is another one of those recipes that freezes well and is nice to have on hand for the lunch box. I’ve made this lasagna with lean ground beef, but you can substitute that for any ground meat you would like to use. One of my sons often makes it using ground chicken, which is absolutely delicious as well.<\/p>\n

Directions:<\/h2>\n

Yield: 9″ x 12″ pan (8-10 servings)<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Saute garlic and diced onion in olive oil until tender.<\/li>\n
  2. Add ground meat and cook until no longer pink. Remove from heat and set aside.<\/li>\n
  3. Combine tomato sauce, tomato paste, water, and seasonings in dutch oven.<\/li>\n
  4. Add ground beef and stir until combined. Cook until heated through.<\/li>\n
  5. Meanwhile, combine cottage cheese, Parmesan cheese and eggs in a small bowl and set aside.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Please watch video for assembly and baking instructions. Enjoy!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
