Spinach Lasagna

This is a recipe from Heidi McAllister (formerly Heidi Southwick, Uncle Mathew's daughter). We love it, even Chad who does not like spinach.

1-2lbs ground beef
1 onion chopped small
2 cans tomato sauce
Italian seasoning
salt
garlic powder
parsley flakes
small package
fresh baby spinich leaves
cheddar cheese
Monterey jack cheese
1-16oz cottage cheese
2 eggs
1 package lasagna noodles, boiled

In a large hot skillet add onion, cook until softened. Add the ground beef and cook until browned. Next add the 2 cans of tomato sauce and the seasonings to taste. While simmering add the fresh spinich leaves and cover to steam them. Let it simmer while the leaves wilt.

While sauce is simmering prepare the next filling. Add the eggs to cottage cheese along with a sprinkle of parsley flakes. Next add some cheese. Stir well. In a large baking dish spoon a little sauce in the bottom.

Layer the noodles , the white filling, sprinkle cheese and then part of the sauce. Repeat twice ending with the sauce on the top. Sprinkle with cheese and cook in oven at 350 degrees for 35 minutesor until cheese bubbles on top.
