Here is my sister's recipe. It is simple and very good. 1 (26 oz) jar spaghetti sauce 2 (8 oz) cans tomato sauce 2 eggs, beaten 1 (16 oz) carton cottage cheese 1 (10 oz) pkg. frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained. 1/2 c. grated parmesan pinch of nutmeg (optional) 12 lasagna noodles 2 c. shredded mozzarella Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine spaghetti sauce and tomato sauce in a bowl, set aside. In another bowl, combine eggs, cottage cheese, spinach, nutmeg and 1/4 c. of the parmesan cheese, stirring well. Lightly grease 9 x 13 baking pan, cover botom with a thin layer of sauce mixture. Layer remaining ingredients in this order: uncooked noodles, followed by spinach mixture, mozzarella, then a layer of sauce. Repeat twice and sprinkle with remaining parmesan. Cover and bake for 1 hour. Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting. Give this a try....you won't regret it.

Actually, spinach/veggie lasagna is the best dang lasagna out there!!! I posted to another discussion yesterday that I make the best veggie lasagna the has spinach, carrots, peas, and even lima beans that you don't taste! My kids have no problem eating their veggies in the lasagna!!! I make mine very similar to yours...and I don't use ricotta either...I don't like it. Cottage cheese is much better!!!! But I must say, I have never used nutmeg...I will have to try it next time! Thanks for sharing! I will copy and store that in my computer!

Nutmeg is a very complimentary flavor for spinach. You will love it.

I like spinach lasagna too, but I make mine the italian way and do not use cottage cheese, but rather ricotta cheese.

It sounds quite similar to the way I make mine. The only difference is that mine is not vegetarian. I add ground beef, onions, garlic and mushrooms to the sauce. I love it and the spinach is my favorite part.
