Pizzagna image

I love pizza, but I can no longer eat yeast bread. I can have wheat though, so pasta is still in. To serve my pizza craving, I devised this dish that delivers all the goodness of a supreme combo pizza without the yeast bread. For a crowd, serve with garlic bread and salad and/or veggies on the side to really stretch this dish.

Time 1h20m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 15

cooking spray
4 cups prepared marinara sauce
1 pound bulk Italian sausage
1 tablespoon water
1 green bell pepper, chopped
½ red onion, chopped
3 cups cottage cheese
4 eggs, beaten
⅓ cup Parmesan cheese
2 teaspoons dried parsley
1 (8 ounce) package no-boil lasagna noodles, or more if needed
½ cup mini pepperoni pieces, or more to taste
½ cup sliced mushrooms, or to taste
¼ cup sliced black olives, or to taste
3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Heat spaghetti sauce in a saucepan over medium heat.
  • Cook and stir sausage and water in a large skillet over medium heat, using a potato masher to break sausage into small pieces, until sausage is crumbly and almost cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add pepper and onion; cook and stir until onion is tender, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Stir cottage cheese, eggs, Parmesan cheese, and parsley together in a bowl.
  • Spread about 1 cup warmed spaghetti sauce into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Arrange 3 lasagna noodles over the sauce. Spread 1/2 of the cottage cheese mixture over the noodles, another 1 cup spaghetti sauce over the cheese, and 2/3 cup sausage mixture over the top. Sprinkle 1/2 of the pepperoni pieces, 1/2 of the sliced mushrooms, and 1/2 of the olives over the sausage mixture. Scatter 1/3 the mozzarella cheese over the top and arrange 3 lasagna noodles atop the cheese. Repeat layering again.
  • Pour remaining spaghetti sauce over the lasagna and sprinkle remaining mozzarella cheese over the top. Cover baking dish with aluminum foil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until sauce is bubbling around the edges, about 25 minutes. Remove aluminum foil and continue baking until cheese is melted and golden, about 5 minutes more. Cool for 15 minutes before slicing.

I'm not a huge fan of eggplant, but I decided to try this recipe anyway. I was pleasantly surprised! The eggplant was cooked perfectly and the overall flavor of the dish was amazing. I'll definitely be making this again.

I followed the recipe exactly and the pizzagna turned out perfectly. It was so good that I ate two pieces for dinner and then had leftovers for lunch the next day.
