Brown meat in heavy skillet and drain the grease. Add salt, garlic, and pepper. Stir in tomatoes, tomato sauce, and spaghetti sauce mix. Cover and simmer 30 minutes.

Cook lasagna as directed on package. Drain and rinse.

Into an 8" x 12" (or 9" x 13") baking dish, pour 1/3 of the meat sauce, cover with half the strips of lasagna, then half of the Mozzarella, then half of the cottage cheese. Repeat layers: 1/3 meat sauce, the rest of the strips of lasagna, the rest of the Mozarella, and the rest of the cottage cheese. Put the final 1/3 of the meat sauce on top. Then sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top of that.

Bake at 350 degrees for 20 – 25 minutes.
