I love cottage cheese but was disappointed when I've used it in lasagne. I like the idea someone gave about using half cottage cheese and half ricotta in lasagne. I would try that.0

But, that's just me
ahhh well good thing I'm not italian Lol0 -
Oh, and thanks for the reminder!!!! I'm supposed to make lasagna so hubby can bring some to his friend recovering from surgery.... I need to go to store to make sure I have all ingredients!
Thanks so much! you're a life saver.0 -
I love ricotta, but I actually prefer cottage cheese to ricotta in lasagna. I use the low-fat (2%) cottage cheese and reduced-fat mozzarella. Delish. Now my mouth is watering for lasagna.0

I've put cottage cheese and also I've put fresh tofu in place of both ricotta and cottage cheese. To me, I cannot tell the difference. All tasted great.0

The recipe I use uses cottage cheese mixed with an egg. I love it.0

Same with me, though it's been longer than a year. I didn't know Ricotta existed cause mom only used Cottage Cheese cause it was cheaper.My mom did it, i didn't even know something called ricotta existed till...like a year ago.
Draining it sounds like a good plan.0 -
my moms lasagna recipes has cottage cheese in it ... and it is pretty good.0

I use cottage- you can use an emersion blender to smooth it out if the texture bothers you0

I grew up thinking lasagna was always made with cottage cheese. My mom always whipped an egg and mixed it with the cottage cheese to firm up the texture. I think it's yummy, although ricotta is tasty, too.0

It will be different but fine. I find it about the same as many exchanges. It is different, but you get used to it.0

Tried it once...it's really good! But make sure you drain it. I didn't know and my lasagne came out like soup0

I use cottage cheese in my lasagna....it always turns out good. I don't care for ricotta cheese. To me, It has a chalky flavor. My mom mixes ricotta and cottage for her lasagna. Hope whatever you go with it turns out well.0
