-
Preheat oven to 375ºF if you plan to bake it right away.
-
Mix eggs, cottage cheese, spinach, parmesan, and 1 cup mozzarella.
-
Prepare sauce. {you could use jarred sauce for this, or prepare your own. You can add italian sausage, or ground beef to the sauce, or leave it out for a vegetarian dish. I love it either way.}
-
In a 9×13 inch baking dish spoon out about 2 spoonfuls of the sauce, then place 1 layer of uncooked noodles.
-
Cover with 1/3 of the cheese and spinach mixture, then top with 1/4 of the sauce.
-
Add two more layers of noodles, cheese, and sauce, then top with the 3 remaining noodles and cover with the last of the sauce.
-
At this point, you can save it for later by covering and storing in fridge or freezer.
-
When you’re ready to bake, poor 1 cup of water around the outside of your noodles and cover tightly with tin foil.
-
Place your baking dish on a cookie sheet to catch any spills, and then bake at for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
-
Remove foil and top with the remaining 1 cup of mozzarella, then return to the oven for 5 minutes or until cheese is melted.
