Ingredients

    1 lb. ground venison
    1 small onion, chopped
    1/2 tsp dried basil
    1 tsp dried oregano
    1 tsp salt
    6 lasagna noodles, uncooked
    2 cans diced Italian style tomatoes
    1 cup sliced zuchini
    1 cup sliced yellow squash
    1 cup bell pepper sliced
    1 cup red sweet pepper sliced
    1 cup mushrooms, white, sliced
    1 cup 1% part skim milk cottage cheese
    1 & 1/2 cup shredded mozerella cheese
    1/2 cup parmesan cheese

Directions

Saute onion, garlic and ground venison until browned, adding spices. Add one can of the diced tomatoes to the meat mixture, and puree the other can and add to the meat mixture. Simmer on low heat.

In a small bowl add 1 cup cottage cheese, 1 cup of the mozzarella cheese and 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese and mix well. Set aside.

In oval slow cooker, put 1/3 of the meat/sauce mixture in the bottom. Layer three of the UNCOOKED lasagna noodles. (break in half to fit) Add the cottage cheese mixture, spreading evenly over the noodles. Put another 1/3 of the sauce over the cottage cheese mixture. Layer the vegetables on top of the meat sauce. Layer the three remaining lasagna noodles, broken to fit. Top with the remaining meat sauce. Cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours. Just before serving, sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top and let stand covered for 15 minutes to melt the cheese and thicken. Cut into 6 servings and enjoy!
