Directions
Cook lasagna in a large quantity of boiling water until just barely tender; drain off most of water; add ice cubes to stop cooking.
Allow lasagna to stand in cold water to prevent pasta sticking together.
In a saucepan, brown meat with onion and garlic; drain off fat.
Cook over low heat, covered, for about 5 min.
Stir in mushrooms with liquid, tomato sauce, tomato paste, salt and oregano.
Simmer 15 mins.
Combine egg with spinach, cottage and parmesan cheeses.
Spread ⅓ of meat sauce in 13x9 inch baking dish .
Cover ¼ of lasagna (about 5 overlapping strips.)
Alternate another ⅓ of sauce and ¼ of lasagna.
Spread spinach mixture over pasta and cover with ¼ lasagna strips.
Top with remaining sauce and pasta.
Arange mozzarella cheese on top. Bake at 350℉ (180℃) for 30 mins.
Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
