32 ounces pasta sauce (I like chunky mushroom you can use more if you like)
8 ounces lasagna noodles (or more)
16 ounces cottage cheese (full fat is best)
8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
1/4 cup textured vegetable protein (optional)
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
1 medium onion, diced
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pinch kosher salt

1
I usually put the cottage cheese in my electric chopper (not processor) to mimic the texture of ricotta. I also use the 4% minimum fat kind.
2
Saute onion and garlic in olive oil and salt for 5 minutes.
3
Add mushrooms, and saute with the onions until cooked. I chop up the mushrooms in the pan with a spatula, to make them small (kinda like meat).
4
Don't drain the liquid.
5
Meanwhile, soak the TVP in boiling water to soften, then drain.
6
Add the TVP, and mix together.
7
Add the sauce, and mix.
8
Ladle some sauce onto the bottom of the crockpot.
9
Make a double layer of noodles on the sauce--break those suckers up to fit.
10
Spread the cheeses over the noodles.
11
Sauce, then noodles (double layer), then cheese, until layers are done.
12
I usually finish with a layer of mozzarella.
13
Cook on low for 4-5 hours.
