Passover Lasagna


Passover Lasagne

This is an old recipe from my college cookbook that has remained a favorite over the years.

Ingredients:
2 lb. cottage cheese
12-16 oz tomato sauce
2 eggs
salt and pepper to taste
1 Tbsp parsley  
1 Tbsp oregano     for the herbs, use fresh if available
1 Tbsp basil
4 matzos
8-12 oz Mozzarella
1 cup fresh spinach, coarsely chopped




Preparation:
Soak matzos in water until soft.
Dry on paper towel and place in oven-safe casserole, on top of 1" of tomato sauce.
Mix cottage cheese, eggs, spices and spinach and let stand until beige yellow in color.
Layer mixture on top of matzo.
Layer mozzarella.
Then layer tomato sauce, matzo and continue to repeat.
Cover the 4th matzo with tomato sauce and mozzarella cheese, without the cottage cheese mixture.

Bake at 325 covered for about 30-35 minutes, then uncovered for 15 minutes.
