So a very, very long time ago I promised a friend that I would share my recipe for Healthy Heart Lasagna. I got this recipe when I was going to a nutritionist for weight loss. Since that time I have calculated the points for this recipe. There are 6 points/serving. The recipe makes 10 servings. These are healthy portion sizes and so it makes you think you are getting away with something. Enjoy!
Healthy Heart Lasagna
6 oz ground beef, very lean
1/2 c. chopped onion
1 clove garlic - minced
Brown the above ingredients and drain off all fat.
Stir in:
1-16 oz tomato sauce
2- 8 oz mushrooms (fresh can be used)
2 tsp. basil
Cook according to directions 8 oz lasagna noodles
Mix together the following and set aside:
2 eggs, beaten
2 c. cottage cheese
1/4 c. Parmesan cheese
