Lasagna

Here a easy and quick recipe for a fantastic Lasagna.

1lbs italian sausage
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 cup dry red wine
26oz of your favorite spaghetti sauce
1/2 tsp salt

1 cup cottage cheese
1 cup ricotta cheese
4 oz mozzarella cheese, cut in tiny cubes (IMPORTANT: Use the fresh kind of Mozarrella that comes in a container with liquid like the one from BelGioioso)
2 cloves crushed garlic
1 tsp freshly chopped basil
1/4 tsp mediterranean seasoning (McCormick Perfect Pinch)
1/4 tsp italian seasoning
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
about 9-12 sheets of no cook Lasagna noodles
2 cups shredded cheese (I prefer Mozzarella-Provolone mix from Sargento)

1.) In a large skillet crumble the sausage and cook until browned, then add the chopped onions and cook for another 5 minutes until the onion is cooked.
2.) Meanwhile combine cottage cheese, ricotta cheese, chopped mozzarella, garlic, basil, mediterranean seasoning, italian seasoning and salt & pepper in a medium size bowl and blend well. Then set aside
3.) When the sausage-onion mixture is cooked add the red wine, spaghetti sauce and 1/2 tsp of salt and let simmer on low for about 5 Minutes
4.) Use a 8" x 11" casserole dish and layer as follows:

- 3 to 4 sheets of Lasagna noodles

- remaining half of the cottage-ricotta cheese mixture
