Ingredients

500 grams lasagna noodles
1 pound ground beef, lean
1 each onion finely chopped
1 each garlic cloves minced
10 ounces mushrooms sliced
14 ounces tomato sauce
5 1/2 ounces tomato paste
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon oregano dried
1 each egg beaten
1 cup cottage cheese creamed
1/3 cup parmesan, parmigiano-reggiano cheese, grated grated
1 package mozzarella cheese sliced
1 package spinach thawed, chopped

Directions

Cook lasagna in a large quantity of boiling water until just barely tender; drain off most of water; add ice cubes to stop cooking.

Allow lasagna to stand in cold water to prevent pasta sticking together.

In a saucepan, brown meat with onion and garlic; drain off fat.

Cook over low heat, covered, for about 5 min.

Stir in mushrooms with liquid, tomato sauce, tomato paste, salt and oregano.

Simmer 15 mins.

Combine egg with spinach, cottage and parmesan cheeses.

Spread 1/3 of meat sauce in 13x9 inch baking dish.

Cover 1/4 of lasagna (about 5 overlapping strips.)

Alternate another 1/3 of sauce and 1/4 of lasagna.

Spread spinach mixture over pasta and cover with 1/4 lasagna strips.

Top with remaining sauce and pasta.

Arange mozzarella cheese on top. Bake at 350F for 30 mins.

Let stand 10 mins. before serving.
