In reply to Judy. Judy ~ I add spinach, as well! I've also found that I can mix in 2 eggs with the cottage cheese before layering next to the regular lasagna noodles without boiling.

A little-known secret… If you mix 2 eggs with the cottage cheese before layering next to the noodles, they do not have to be boiled at all before baking.

Mmmm, maybe if you added a 1/2 cup water that might do it. I have never had a problem, I was comparing your liquids and mine. I use a 14 oz can puree, 14 oz. can of drained diced tomatoes, 6 oz can of tomato paste, 1/2 cup water and 1/4 cup sherry. I do use more cottage cheese, 32 oz and 3 eggs. Cooking is so fascinating!

In reply to Barbara. So interesting, Barbara! I had no idea you could do it that way. My sauce is fairly thick when chunky, without a lot of extra liquid, so I’d be concerned the noodles would dry everything out.

Several years before I was married, 56 years ago, I was visiting a friend and she was making Lasagna with Cottage Cheese. She shared the recipe with me and I have been making it that way ever since. One thing that I DON’T do is boil the noodles. I do use traditional noodles. They seem to cook in the sauce just right and are always aldente. I just layer them as you would layer the boiled ones. A lot easier to handle!

In reply to Sandrs. This originating as a Berry Crocker recipe absolutely sounds right!

In reply to Lori Yates. Omg! People! I’ve made my lasagna eith cottage cheese since I started cooking for our family when I was 12 because my Mom arrived home exhausted every night and my two younger brothers thought they would starve to death waiting for her to prepare. something! And I grew up in Florida. I believe maybe I found the recipe in the cookbook my Mom bought me which was a Betty Crocker for kids. Making it again tonight!

I absolutely loved this recipe!!
I personally don’t favor ricotta in my lasagna, but wanted something similar to keep it as authentic as possible, best part is everyone in my house loves it too. I will probably use this recipe forever!!
