Lasagna

From: Me...
12 lasagna noodles cooked 
1 lb. sausage cooked
1-2 green peppers chopped (saute this with the onion)
1 small onion
1 jar of spaghetti sauce
12 oz. of cottage cheese
1/2-3/4 of a package of ricotta cheese
1 egg
Parmesan cheese
1/2 t garlic powder
1 T dried parsley flakes
2 cups mozzarella cheese (reserve 1 cup)


Cook sausage, saute green peppers & onions set aside. Mix cottage cheese, ricotta, 1 cup of mozzarella cheese, egg, Parmesan cheese, garlic and parsley.  Spray a 9X13 dish, spread a couple of good spoonfuls of spaghetti sauce in the bottom.  Place one layer of noodles down then 1/2 of your sausage pepper/onion mixture and 1/2 of your cheese mixture. Top this with 1/4 jar of spaghetti sauce and then noodles. Repeat this once more using of course the remaining cheese sauce, sausage.  Top with noodles cover with remaining sauce and the 1 cup of mozzarella cheese that was set aside.  Cover with foil and bake at 350 degrees for 45 min. uncovering it for the last 10 min.  Let rest, serve.  Serve with a green salad and toasted french bread.  To toast the french bread cut it lengthwise spread melted butter down both sides of the bread, sprinkle this with garlic salt, parsley flakes and some Parmesan cheese.  Put the two halves back together and wrap this in foil, I cook this alongside the lasagna so when the lasagna is done so is the bread (put it in when there is about 30 min. left on your timer)
