Who says comfort food has to come with a side of guilt? With Sturdy Sauce’s high-protein Marinara, you can make the cheesiest and beefiest lasagna you crave but with a serious boost of protein.
What You’ll Need
- 9 lasagna noodles (use low-carb if you like)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 lb ground beef or turkey
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/4 cup red wine (or beef broth)
- 16 oz cottage cheese
- 15 oz ricotta cheese
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella (divided)
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
How to Make It
- Cook your lasagna noodles until they’re just right (al dente, if you want to sound fancy). Drain and cool them in cold water so they don’t stick.
- Brown your beef with some diced onions and garlic. Pour in a little red wine (or beef broth), then stir in Sturdy Sauce Marinara. Let it simmer for 5 minutes.
- In a bowl, mix up the cottage cheese, ricotta, 1 cup of mozzarella, egg, and parsley. This is your creamy, dreamy cheese layer that’ll make your lasagna irresistible.
- Grab a 9x13 dish and spread a bit of that meaty sauce on the bottom. Lay down some noodles, spread on the cheese, and top it with more sauce. Repeat the layers until you are satisfied.
- Top your lasagna with the last bit of sauce and a full cup of mozzarella. The cheese will melt into a perfect, golden crust that makes this lasagna extra special.
- Cover your dish with foil (toothpicks keep the cheese from sticking) and bake at 375°F for 45 minutes. Then, uncover and broil for 3-5 minutes to get that cheese golden and bubbly.
- Let your lasagna sit for 30 minutes before you dig in. Trust us. It’s worth the wait.
