My Big Fat Lasagna

I love making lasagna.  There is no better food coma than one caused from lasagna and breadsticks.

1 box lasagna noodles, cooked
1 lb ground beef, cooked and drained
1 c. cottage cheese
1 c. ricotta cheese
8oz cream cheese
2 jars of spaghetti sauce (Prego Four Cheese is the best!)
4 c. mozzarella cheese (Italian blend is best)
Dash of oregano and parsley

Preheat oven to 400.  Boil noodles, drain, set aside.  In large bowl, add sauce and cooked meat, stir well.  In separate bowl, combine cottage cheese, ricotta cheese, 1 cup of mozzarella cheese, and cream cheese until well blended.   Spray a 9x13 baking dish with non stick spray.  Spread a little bit of sauce mixture on bottom.  Layer noodles, sauce mixture, cheese mixture, and sprinkle on some mozzarella cheese.  Do this for all layers, topping final layer with a LOT of mozzarella cheese.  Top with dash of oregano and parsely.  Bake for 40 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.  Serve hot with some Pepperidge Farm garlic breadsticks.  Enjoy your food coma :)
