Servings: persons

1 1/2 pounds ground bison
1/2 pound lean ground pork
1 small sweet onion, chopped
1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 (14 ounce) can no-salt-added tomato sauce (such as Hunt's(R))
1 (6 ounce) can no-salt-added tomato paste (such as Hunt's(R))
1 cup low sodium salsa
1 cup water
2 tablespoons peri-peri chili pepper sauce (such as Nando's(R))
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach
1 (16 ounce) package creamed cottage cheese
1 (12 ounce) box oven-ready lasagna noodles (such as Italpasta(R))
3 cups shredded Italian cheese blend (such as Black Diamond(R))

1
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir bison and pork in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Add onion and garlic; cook until soft, about 3 minutes. Stir in tomato sauce, tomato paste, salsa, water, peri-peri sauce, and Italian seasoning. Reduce heat to low and simmer meat sauce, stirring occasionally, until thickened and flavorful, about 1 hour.
2
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
3
Put frozen spinach in a microwave-safe bowl. Cook in the microwave until steaming and no water is left in the bowl, 5 to 7 minutes. Let cool; stir in cottage cheese.
4
Spread a thin layer of meat sauce in the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking pan. Add a layer of noodles, another layer of meat sauce, and another layer of noodles. Top with all of the spinach-cheese mixture, another layer of noodles, the remaining meat sauce, and the shredded Italian cheese blend. Cover pan with aluminum foil.
5
Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes. Uncover and continue baking until cheese is browned and bubbly, about 15 minutes more. Let stand 20 minutes before cutting.
