Easy "on a budget" Lasagna
1 box uncooked lasagna noodles
1 lb hamburger, cooked and drained
1 jar prepared pasta sauce (You can skip the hamburger if you use Ragu Mama's Meat Sauce)
1 pint cottage cheese
1/2 lb. mozzarella
1 cup water
Combine the hamburger, the water and the pasta sauce (you can use the water to rinse the jar if you want). Spread some of the meat sauce in the bottom of a lasagna pan (13x9x2) spread some meat sauce. Place 3 lasagna noodles adjacent to each other
allow space for them to expand as they cook. Place a layer of cottage cheese and mozzarella on top. Add some sauce. Continue with additional layers. Sprinkle the last layer of sauce with mozzarella, and you can add some grated parmesan cheese if
you like.
Cover the pan with foil and bake for 45 minutes to an hour at 350 degrees. Uncover for the last few minutes. Let the lasagna sit for 15 minutes before you cut it.
