For a richer flavor, consider adding a layer of ricotta cheese along with the cottage cheese. Fresh herbs like basil or oregano can be added to the meat sauce for extra depth of flavor. Feel free to substitute ground turkey or Italian sausage for the ground beef. If you don't have cottage cheese, ricotta cheese works well as a substitute. Assemble the lasagna ahead of time and bake it just before serving for a convenient meal.
