Lasagna


1 box of lasagna noodles
1 carton of mushrooms
1 bag of fresh spinach
5 c pizza cheese
2 c of cottage cheese
6 c of your favorite marinera or pasta sauce
1 c pepperoni
1 c of Italian Sausage
1 t Oregano
1 T Olive oil

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Spray a 9 X 14 rectangle casserole dish
with a non stick spray.

Generously coat the bottom of the pan with sauce and then neatly
position 1 row of 3 or 4 uncooked lasagna noodles; cover completely in
sauce and then sprinkle with cheese.

Layer spinach, mushrooms, pepperoni to cover noodles. Sprinkle with more
cheese and take ¼ cup of cottage cheese and dollop it in the center of
the layer.

Make another dollop of the same in the corners of the pan and gently
spread cottage cheese as far as you can. Do not worry about spreading it
far because it will spread out completely as it cooks.

Layer with sauce and stack with another row of uncooked noodles. Sauce
noodles completely again. Begin another layer until you reach the top of
your casserole dish.

For the top layer, finish top layer with pasta noodles covered in sauce
then cheese.

Neatly place pepperoni side by side until it covers the entire dish.
Take fresh cut mushrooms and make two rows of mushrooms on the top of
the pepperoni. In between the rows of mushrooms place nice chunks of
fresh Italian sausage.

Drizzle 1 tablespoon of Olive Oil and lightly sprinkle with oregano.
Bake for 45 minutes to an hour covered with aluminum foil that has been
sprayed with a non stick spray.

Remove the top during the last 15 minutes of cooking to allow the cheese
to brown on top. Let the dish rest for at least ½ hour.
