Grammy's Overnight Lasagna

Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds ground beef
• 1 jar marinara sauce , 30 ounce
• 0.75 cups water
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 12 lasagnas noodles
• 1 package cottage cheese , 16 ounce
• 12 ounces grated mozzarella cheese
• 0.5 cups grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

1. 1

   Cook the ground beef in a large saucepan over medium-high heat until browned and no longer pink, about 5 minutes; drain fat. Stir in the marinara sauce, water, and salt. Bring to a boil. Remove sauce from heat.

2. 2

   Arrange 6 noodles in a 9x13-inch baking dish, breaking if necessary to fit. Spoon 1/2 of the sauce over noodles. Top with 1/2 of the cottage cheese and 1/2 of the mozzarella cheese. Repeat layers with remaining noodles, sauce, cottage cheese, and mozzarella cheese. Top with Parmesan cheese. Cover tightly with foil; refrigerate overnight.

3. 3

   Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

4. 4

   Bake lasagna, covered, until noodles are soft, cheese is melted, and sauce is bubbly, about 1 hour. Allow to sit for 10 minutes before serving.
