Sloppy Joe Lasagna for Lazy Cooks

Janet Groene’s
Two-Night Sloppy Joe
    Make up a sloppy joe mixture at home or in camp using 2 pounds ground beef. Serve half in buns. Use  the other half to make this delicious lasagna.

6 lasagna noodles
About 2 1/2 cups leftover sloppy joe (use your favorite recipe)
8-ounce can tomato sauce
15-ounce can ready-to-serve beef broth
12-ounce carton cottage cheese, regular, lite or non-fat
1 egg
1 cup shredded cheese such as Cheddar
½ cup shredded cheese such as mozzarella
    Grease a casserole and place three dry noodles in the bottom to form an even layer. Cover with sloppy joe. In a bowl, whisk together cottage cheese, egg and shredded Cheddar and spoon over sloppy joe. Top with remaining noodles. Wipe out the bowl with a paper towel (it’s OK if it is not completely clean) and stir together tomato sauce and beef broth. Pour over casserole. Cover with foil and bake 40 minutes at 350 degrees.
    Remove foil, add remaining cheese and return to the oven until lasagna is bubbly and cheese melted. Serves 6.
