1 pound lean ground beef
1 onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, smashed

1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon dried oregano
12 ounces lasagna noodles, uncooked
12 ounces cottage cheese
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese or 1/2 cup asiago cheese
16 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese
1. Brown ground beef, onion and garlic in frying pan. Add tomato sauce, tomato paste, salt and oregano.
