B G's Meaty Lasagna

This recipe was developed for my two brothers. Both of them love their lasagna with lots of meat. After many episodes of trial and error, i was finally able to satisfy them. Feel free to add spinach to the mix, they both hate the stuff, so it was never used in the recipe i developed. This one is for you bro's (the secret is out)!!

Steps

Saute onions , green peppers and garlic in 2 tbsp oil.
Add celery to very tail end of this.
Add beef , breaking apart.
Brown the beef , if you are using extra lean ground beef , there is no need to drain any excess fat.
Add tomato sauce , tomato paste , salt , dried oregano , italian seasoning and water.
Simmer for 20 to 25 minutes.
In a separate bowl , mix 1 egg with cottage and parmesan cheese , 1 tbsp oil and 1 tsp salt.
Beat second egg and toss with noodles.
Assemble lasagna in a lasagna pan in the following order: 1 / 2 meat mix , 1 / 2 noodles , cheese / egg mix , 1 / 2 noodle mix , 1 / 2 meat mix.
Bake in a 350 degree oven for 45 minutes.
Add mozzarella cheese to top after lasagna has been in oven for 45 minutes.
Bake 15 minutes longer.
