Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Lean Ground Beef
- 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 800 grams Canned Crushed Tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons Tomato Paste
- 2 teaspoons Italian Seasoning
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
- 250 grams Protein Enriched Lasagne Sheets
- 400 grams Cottage Cheese
- 1 large Egg
- 100 grams Spinach, chopped
- 50 grams Parmesan Cheese, grated
- 200 grams Mozzarella Cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
Add the lean ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spoon. Cook until browned, about 7-8 minutes.
Stir in the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, Italian seasoning, salt, and ground black pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook uncovered for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
In a medium bowl, combine the cottage cheese, egg, and chopped spinach. Mix well and set aside.
Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
Spread a thin layer of the meat sauce at the bottom of the dish.
Add a layer of protein-enriched lasagne sheets over the sauce.
Spread half of the cottage cheese mixture over the lasagne sheets.
Sprinkle a third of the mozzarella cheese over the cottage cheese layer.
Repeat the layers, ending with a layer of meat sauce on top.
Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese and grated Parmesan cheese over the top layer of meat sauce.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the lasagne rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your high protein lasagne!
