Cheese Veggie Lasagna
8 - 10 Lasagna noodles, cooked and drained
1 Tbsp. olive oil
1 small onion, diced
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 10-oz. packages frozen spinach, thawed and drained
1 cup grated carrots
2 cups cottage cheese
1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
1 cup Swiss cheese, shredded
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
Salt and pepper to taste
Heat oil in a skillet and saute onion and garlic until lightly brown and tender,
add spinach and carrots and desired amount of salt and pepper and continue
cooking for several minutes. Combine cottage cheese, mozzarella cheese and Swiss
cheese together and mix well. Add spinach mixture to the cheese and mix well.
Place 1/3 of this spinach-cheese mixture at the bottom of a 13 x 9-inch-baking
dish that has been sprayed with non-stick spray.
Place 4 - 5 noodles on top of the spinach-cheese mixture, then 1/3 more of
spinach-cheese mixture and 4 - 5 more noodles. Place the remaining
spinach-cheese mixture on top and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake for 35 -
45 minute at 350 degrees. Let stand for 15 - 20 minutes before cutting and
serving. For you meat-eaters out there, just layer some cooked ground beef or
some sausage in between the spinach-cheese mixture and the noodles.
