Yummy Homemade Lasagna image

This is the best lasagna I have ever made! I was out of ricotta cheese one day (I've never been a fan of ricotta anyways) but I had some cottage cheese in the fridge so decided to substitute that for the ricotta. Oh my that was the best decision I could have made. This recipe has gotten me so many compliments and I've been told...
