How to make no-fuss lasagna:

To make a day ahead and bake just before serving: In a large saucepan, brown ground beef; drain. Add tomato paste, water, spaghetti sauce mix, sugar, parsley, salt, garlic powder and pepper. Simmer, partially covered, for 20 minutes. Stir occasionally.

In a bowl, combine eggs with cottage cheese, half of the Cheddar cheese and half of the Mozzarella cheese. Set aside.

Spoon 1/3 of the meat sauce into a 13 x 9 x 2-inch baking pan. Place half of uncooked noodles over sauce. Top with 1/3 of meat sauce and press down. Spoon cottage cheese mixture over all. Cover with remaining noodles and meat sauce. Cover and refrigerate overnight.

Bake, covered, at 350° for 1 hour. Uncover. Sprinkle with remaining Cheddar and Mozzarella cheeses. Bake an additional 15 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before cutting. Yields 8 servings.

This recipe can also be prepared using cooked noodles and baking the same day.
