Ham and Spinach Lasagna

This recipe does not have any tricky elements, although there are several steps and pans involved. It is one of my favorites because it is so unique. No, my kids don't eat it (I knew you would ask).

6 lasagna noodles
10-oz. package of frozen spinach
2 c. milk
2 T. cornstarch
1 T. dried minced onion (or a tsp. onion powder)
1-1/2 c. diced ham
1/2 tsp. Italian seasoning
1 c. cottage cheese
1 c. mozzarella

Cook six lasagna noodles according to package instructions.

Heat spinach in microwave for 2 minutes to thaw.

Heat milk, cornstarch, and dried onion over medium heat until thickened and bubbly, stirring constantly (pretty much). Cook two minutes more.

Place 2 tablespoons sauce on bottom of 11x7 pan. Stir Italian seasoning and ham into remaining sauce. Place 3 noodles in bottom of 11x7 pan. Cover with 1/3 sauce, all of spinach, all of cottage cheese, and half of the mozzarella.

Next: three more noodles, remaining sauce and mozzarella.

Bake at 375 for 30-35 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

You can freeze this after it is baked and just thaw and reheat later. Six servings.
