Ingredients
  • 1 lb lean ground beef (not an exact measurement, a package of ground beef from the store will suffice!)
  • ½ onion, diced
  • 1 jar (700ml, 23oz) spaghetti sauce
  • ½ can (540ml, 19oz size) diced tomatoes
  • 2 cups baby spinach
  • 250g container cottage cheese
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • ½ bag (380g size) Kraft Italiano Shredded Cheese
  • 1 box Catelli oven ready lasagna noodles
  • parmesan cheese to sprinkle on top before serving
Instructions
  1. In a large skillet over medium heat brown the ground beef with the diced onions. Drain the grease. Add spaghetti sauce and simmer for 5 minutes.
  2. Mince garlic clove and add to cottage cheese, mix well.
  3. To assemble, in the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish evenly spread a few tablespoons of the sauce mixture. You don't need a lot, just enough to give the bottom a liquid base so your noodles don't stick.
  4. Start by laying down lasagna noodles to cover the bottom - you may need to get creative and snap noodles in half to fit in spots.
  5. Cover noodles with ½ of your sauce, ½ your spinach, and all your cottage cheese (see photo below).
  6. Cover with lasagna noodles.
  7. On this layer, cover with ½ sauce, ½ your spinach and all your shredded cheese this time.
  8. Cover with tin foil and bake in 350 oven for 50 minutes.
