Place a small amount of meat mixture on bottom of pan. Arrange 1/3 of the noodles on top of meat mixture. Cover noodles with 1/3 of meat mixture, 1 cup cottage cheese, and 1/3 each of Cheddar cheese and Parmesan cheese. Repeat layers twice, using remaining 1 cup of cottage cheese on middle layer.
What can I use in lasagna instead of cottage cheese? You can still use ricotta, parmesan and mozzarella cheese in place of cottage cheese, but for a different flavor profile, use cream cheese and asiago cheese in the filling and top with grated extra sharp white cheddar cheese.
That depends on what you mean by better. Both Ricotta and cottage cheese have a similar flavor profile, but they differ in texture and fat content. For a lighter lasagna, cottage cheese is the clear winner. Ricotta is creamier than cottage cheese, but also has a lot more calories.
