I made it, it is the best lasagna I have ever eaten. Words can't describe it's more than fabulous

 A part of this article taken from:

Ingredients

Ingredients for Lasagna

1 lb ground beef (15-20% fat content)

1 small onion finely diced

2 large garlic cloves minced

1/4 cup red wine (any kind), or beef broth

1 Tbsp olive oil

24 oz Marinara Sauce (3 cups)

1/2 tsp sea salt

1/4 tsp black pepper ground

1/4 tsp dried thyme

1/2 tsp granulated sugar

2 Tbsp parsley finely chopped

9 lasagna noodles cooked al dente

Ingredients for Cheese Sauce:

16 oz low-fat cottage cheese

15 oz reduced fat ricotta cheese

1 large egg

2 Tbsp parsley finely chopped, plus more to garnish

4 cups mozzarella cheese shredded, divided

Instructions

How to Make Meat Sauce:

STEP1

Place a deep pan or dutch oven over medium/high heat and add 1 Tbsp olive oil, 1 lb ground beef and diced onion. Saute, breaking up the meat, for 5 minutes or until beef is no longer pink. Add pressed garlic and sauté another minute until fragrant. 

STEP2

Add 1/4 cup wine and stir for 2 minutes or until wine is nearly evaporated. Add 3 cups marinara, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp pepper, 1/4 tsp thyme, 1/2 tsp sugar and 2 Tbsp parsley. Bring to a simmer then cover and cook 5 minutes. 

How to Make Cheese Sauce:

In a large mixing bowl, combine 16 oz Cottage Cheese, 15 oz Ricotta, 1 cup mozzarella, 1 egg and 2 Tbsp parsley. Mix well.

How to Make Lasagna:

STEP1

Preheat oven to 375˚F. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add salt and 9 lasagna noodles. Cook until al dente according to package instructions.

STEP2

Spread 1/2 cup meat sauce in the bottom of a deep 9x13 casserole dish. 

Add 3 noodles, spread on 1/3 of the meat sauce and sprinkle with 1 cup mozarella cheese. Spoon on and spread the top with 1/2 of your cheese sauce. 

STEP3

Repeat until you have 3 layers of noodles: 

Add 3 noodles, 1/3 meat sauce, 1 cup mozarella cheese, 1/2 cheese sauce

Add 3 noodles, remaining 1/3 meat sauce, remaining 1 cup mozarella. 

STEP4

Poke 9-12 toothpicks over the surface of your lasagna (to keep the foil from sticking to the cheese). Cover with foil and bake at 375˚F for 45 minutes. 

STEP5

Remove foil and broil for 3 to 5 minutes, or until cheese turns golden. Let lasagna rest 30 min before slicing.
