8 oz. lasagna noodles
3/4 cup onions, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 lb. sausage (I use Jimmy Dean roll)
1/2 lb. ground beef
1 (15 oz.) can tomatoes
1 (8 oz.) can tomato paste
1 tbsp. basil
1 tsp. salt
2 eggs
3 cups cottage cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 tsp. pepper
1 lb. sliced Mozzarella cheese
additional grated Parmesan cheese, for sprinkling

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Cook noodles according to package directions.

Meanwhile, sauté onions and garlic. Add sausage and ground beef to onions and garlic; cook thoroughly.

Add tomatoes, paste and basil to meat mixture. Stir to blend; season with salt, to taste. Simmer for 5 to 10 minutes.

In a separate bowl, lightly beat eggs. Blend cottage and Parmesan cheese into eggs. Add pepper and blend thoroughly.

In a 9x14-inch lasagna pan, lightly oil bottom with olive oil. Layer 1/2 noodles (one layer thick), 1/2 cheese sauce (spread evenly), 1/2 Mozzarella cheese and 1/2 tomato sauce. Repeat, ending with tomato sauce.

Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese on top and bake at 350°F for 30 to 40 minutes.
