Shannon's Easy Lasagna

1 lb. ground beef (I use ground turkey)

32 oz. thick spaghetti sauce

1 1/2 c. water

2 c. (15 oz. container) Ricotta or sm. curd cottage cheese

3 c. (12 oz.) shredded Mozzarella or Monterey Jack cheese

1/2 c. grated Parmesan cheese

2 eggs

1/4 c. chopped parsley (optional)

1 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp. pepper

8 oz. lasagna, uncooked
Brown meat in 3 quart saucepan; drain off excess fat. Add sauce and water; simmer about 10 minutes. Combine remaining ingredients in a separate bowl, except lasagna noodles, for filling. Pour about 1 cup sauce on bottom of 13 x 9 x 2 inch baking pan. Layer 3 pieces of uncooked lasagna over sauce; cover with about 1 1/2 cups sauce. Spread 1/2 of cheese filling over sauce. Repeat layers of lasagna, sauce, and cheese filling. Top with layer of lasagna and remaining sauce. I put shredding chees on top. Cover with aluminum foil and bake at 350 degrees for 55 to 60 minutes. Remove foil; bake about 10 minutes longer. Allow to stand about 10 minutes before cutting for easier handling. 8 to 10 servings.
Lasagna will expand to fill empty spaces.

Note: Make sure to cover with foil. If you don't, your lasagna will be extra dry.
