| 1. Cook lasagna noodles according to package directions. | 2. (Sometime I will try it without cooking the noodles first, but I am a bit of a coward.) Meanwhile, saute the ground beef, garlic and onion in a large skillet or saucepan until the beef is done. | 3. Add sauce, salt and Italian seasoning and mix well. | 4. Simmer on low heat 12 to 15 minutes. | 5. In a separate bowl, combine ricotta, cottage cheese, and beaten eggs. | 6. Grease a 9x13 or larger baking pan (larger is much better, otherwise you won't have enough room for everything). | 7. Arrange a first layer of noodles so the ends hang over the sides of the pan. | 8. (The ends will be laid back over the top for the final layer). | 9. Then add a layer of the sauce, half of the ricotta mixture, and mozzarella cheese. | 10. Add a second alternating layer of pasta, meat sauce, the rest of the ricotta mixture, and mozzarella cheese. | 11. Repeat with another layer of pasta, then fold over the ends of the first layer of noodles and top with the rest of the sauce. | 12. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and bake at 350 degrees for 40-45 minutes, or till cheese is bubbly. | 13. Allow to set for 10 minutes before cutting. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
