(Submitted by Donna Sorenson; received recipe from Lillian Peacock)

9 lasagna noodles, cooked

1 – 24 oz. jar Prego Italian Sauce (I use the Fresh Mushroom variety)

1 pint cottage cheese

½ pound Italian Sausage, browned

1 pound Mozzarella cheese, grated

Cook lasagna noodles according to package instructions. While they are cooking, brown Italian sausage and grate cheese. In 9”x13” pan, layer: noodles, sauce, cottage cheese, mozzarella cheese, and sausage. Make three layers with top layer only having sauce and cheese on top of the noodles. Bake at 350° for 30 minutes, uncovered. Cover with foil and allow to set for 5-10 minutes for easier serving.

2^nd (middle) layer – Noodles, 1/3 of sauce, other half of cottage cheese, other half of sausage, 1/3 of grated cheese
