Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
• 1 tablespoon dried oregano
• 1 cup cottage cheese
• 1 large egg, lightly beaten
• 1 cup crumbled blue cheese
• cooking spray
• 1 (24 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce
• 6 slices provolone cheese
• 4 lasagna noodles
• 0.5 pound ground beef
• 0.25 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
• 0.5 pound lean ground pork

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Combine cottage cheese, blue cheese, Parmesan cheese, egg, and oregano in a bowl.

Step 2

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Coat a 9x5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.

Step 3

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add beef and pork; cook, breaking up meat with a wooden spoon, until brown and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease. Add spaghetti sauce and brown sugar; stir until well blended. Set aside.

Step 4

Spread 1 inch sauce in the bottom of the prepared loaf pan. Break and arrange 2 lasagna noodles to fit length of the pan, slightly overlapping. Spread 1/2 cottage cheese mixture on top noodle layer; layer 3 overlapping slices provolone on top cottage cheese mixture. Sprinkle 1/2 Cheddar cheese on top provolone. Repeat layering with remaining sauce, noodles, cottage cheese mixture, provolone, and Cheddar cheese, ending with a sauce layer.

Step 5

Place loaf pan on the prepared baking sheet; cover loosely with aluminum foil.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven until bubbling and cooked through, about 1 ½ hours. Set aside before slicing, about 15 minutes.
