Homemade Four Cheese Lasagna with Ricotta and Cottage Cheese

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).

Step 2

Boil the 9 lasagna noodles in a large pot of salted water.

Step 3

Mix together the 12 oz of cottage cheese, 4 oz mozzarella cheese, 8 oz of ricotta cheese, 4 oz parmesan cheese, 1 large egg, 1 teaspoon dried basil, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1 teaspoon dried parsley, ½ teaspoon kosher salt, and ½ teaspoon black pepper in a large bowl.

Step 4

In a 9x13 pan, spread a small amount of sauce in the bottom of the pan to prevent the noodles from sticking. Place three lasagna noodles across the bottom of the pan. Then layer half the cheese mixture and one-third of the pasta sauce.

Step 5

Repeat the layering of noodles, cheese mixture, and pasta sauce one more time.

Step 6

Top with the remaining noodles, sauce, and 4 oz mozzarella cheese.

Step 7

Cover with foil. Bake for 45 minutes and then remove the foil and bake for another 15 minutes. The cheese should be melted and the sauce bubbly.

Step 8

Allow the lasagna to rest for 10 minutes before cutting.
