Instructions
- In a saucepan, heat the pasta sauce over medium heat. Stir in the sugar until it dissolves, then season with salt and pepper to taste.
- In a large bowl, combine the cottage cheese, mozzarella, and Colby jack. Season with salt and pepper to taste and mix well.
- Boil the lasagna noodles until al dente, then drain.
- Lay the noodles out on parchment paper to cool, separating them so they don't stick together.
- Preheat the oven to 350 to 375°F.
- Spread 1/2 cup of sauce across the bottom of the pan.
- Layer 1: Lay down 3 noodles, then top with 1 cup of sauce and 1 1/4 cups of the cheese mixture.
- Layer 2: Add 3 more noodles, 1 cup of sauce, and 1 1/4 cups of the cheese mixture.
- Top layer: Add the last 3 noodles, 1 cup of sauce, and the remaining 3 cups of cheese mixture, spread evenly to the edges.
- Bake for about 45 minutes, until hot and bubbly with a golden top.
