8. 8

   Top cottage cheese mixture with 3/4 cup meat sauce.

9. 9

   Top meat sauce with 1 cup mozzarella.

10. 10

    Top mozzarella with more noodles. (I place noodles in alternating directions in the pan. I think this helps hold the lasaga together. I broke apart noodles to complete the length of the pan.

11. 11

    Top noodles with cottage cheese mixture, meat sauce and more mozzarella.

12. 12

    Make two more layers, following the same order. On the last layer, omit the cottage cheese mixture, just top with meat and mozzarella.

13. 13

    Cover with aluminium foil and bake at 350 degrees for 45-60 minutes.

14. 14

    Uncover and bake another 25-30 miniutes.

15. 15

    Take out of the oven, cover loosely with the aluminum foil and let stand at least 15 minutes. This will help it gel together so it will make nice neat pieces when you cut it.
