Wondering what to do with leftover sauce when you make Jo Mama's World Famous Spaghetti? Here is the perfect answer. Don't skimp on the sauce-this is best when you use 6-7 cups of sauce. Prep time assumes you have already made sauce. I like to make this up in 2 smaller casseroles so I can serve my family one and freeze the 2nd one for later. Ingredients:
6 -7 cups spaghetti sauce (jo mama's world famous spaghetti) or 6 -7 cups use jo mama's world famous spaghetti sauce (jo mama's world famous spaghetti) |
1 (16 ounce) box extra wide lasagna noodles |
1 (32 ounce) carton cottage cheese |
1 teaspoon oregano |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese (divided) |
1 1/2 lbs mozzarella cheese, shredded |
Directions:
1. Cook lasagna noodles according to package directions, drain and cut to fit pan.
2. In small bowl, mix cottage cheese, oregano, salt and 1/4 cup of parmesan cheese.
3. Using two deep 9 x 7-inch glass baking pans or one deep 9 x 13-inch casserole dish, make a layer of noodles followed with 1/2 cottage cheese mixture, 1/2 mozzarella cheese and 1/3 sauce.
4. Follow with another noodle layer, remaining cottage cheese, mozzarella cheese and 1/3 sauce.
5. Top this with a final noodle layer covered with remaining sauce.
6. Sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup parmesan cheese over top.
7. Bake in 350°F oven for 30-40 minutes until casserole is bubbling and slightly browned on top.
8. Let cool for 15 minutes before serving so lasagna can firm up for easier slicing and serving.
