2 eggs, beaten
1 container (16 oz.) 2% Milkfat Low Fat Cottage Cheese
1pkg. (10 oz.) frozen chopped spinach, thawed, well drained (I squeeze with a towel)
3 cups Shredded Mozzarella Cheese, divided (I use Fontina cheese)
½ cup Grated Parmesan Cheese, divided
Parmesan cheese sauce (see below)
9 lasagna noodles, cooked (I use whole grain)
Preheat oven to 350°F.
In a large bowl, mix eggs, cottage cheese, spinach, 2 cups mozzarella (or Fontina) and 1/4 cup Parmesan.
Spray 9x13 inch glass baking dish with cooking spray. Layer approximately 1 cup Parmesan cheese sauce (create a thin layer in the bottom of the dish), 3 lasagna noodles and half the cottage cheese mixture into the 13x9-inch baking dish. Repeat layers. Top with remaining noodles, sauce and remaining cheeses.
Cover with foil and bake 60 min. or until heated through. If desired, removed foil and turn on the broiler. Brown the cheese on top for 3-5 minutes. Let stand 10-15 min. before serving.
Parmesan Cheese sauce ***this may make a little more than you need***
Ingredients:
2.5 cups milk (any kind, I use 1%)
1 cup low sodium chicken broth
5 cloves of garlic, smashed
3 tbsp. unsalted butter
5 tbsp. flour
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and black pepper, to taste
Directions:
Combine the milk, broth, and garlic in a measuring cup. Heat in the microwave until hot.
Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour until well blended. Pour in hot milk mixture gently and whisk. Continue adding milk and whisking. Bring to a boil. Season to taste. Cool slightly- stir in the cheese.
