• 1 package (14 ounces) breakfast turkey sausage links, casings removed and crumbled
• 3 cans (8 ounces each) no-salt-added tomato sauce
• 1 can (6 ounces) tomato paste
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 teaspoons sugar
• 1-1/2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 9 whole wheat lasagna noodles
• 3 large eggs, lightly beaten
• 2 cups 2% cottage cheese

• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
• 1-1/2 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

1. In a large skillet, cook beef and sausage over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add the tomato sauce, tomato paste, garlic, sugar, Italian seasoning and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, cook noodles according to package directions; drain.
2. In a small bowl, combine the eggs, cottage cheese, ricotta cheese, Parmesan and parsley. Spread 1 cup meat sauce into a 13x9-in. baking dish coated with cooking spray. Layer with 3 noodles, half of the cheese mixture, 1-1/3 cups sauce and 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese. Repeat layers. Top with remaining noodles and sauce.
3. Cover and bake at 350u0b0 for 55-60 minutes or until bubbly. Top with provolone and remaining mozzarella cheese. Bake, uncovered, 15-20 minutes longer or until cheese is melted. Let stand for 15 minutes before cutting. Sprinkle with additional parsley.
