Spaghetti Lasagna




Ingredients:

1 package (16 oz) spaghetti
1/2 lb pork sausage
1 small onion chopped
1 jar (24 oz) spaghetti sauce*
1 cup peas, canned or frozen
1 cup corn, canned or frozen
1 cup chopped broccoli
3 roasted red peppers chopped (optional)
2 cloves garlic minced
2 eggs
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
4 TB butter softened
2 cups cottage cheese
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Directions:

Cook spaghetti to al dente. Meanwhile, in a large skillet cook pork sausage and onion over medium heat until meat is brown; drain. Add the vegetables and cook another 5 minutes. Stir in spaghetti sauce and garlic, and set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, Parmesan cheese and butter. Drain spaghetti; add to egg mixture and toss to coat.
Place half of the spaghetti mixture in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Top with half of the cottage cheese, meat sauce and mozzarella cheese. Repeat layers.

Bake at 350° for 30 minutes.
Makes 10 servings.

*Araksya's Tip: I made my own spaghetti sauce by blending fresh tomatoes and other vegetables (celery, beets, carrots, onion, garlic).
