Ingredients:  
9 uncooked lasagna noodles
1 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced
1/4 cup chopped onion
2 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup all purpose flour
1 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules
3/4 teaspoon garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

10 ounces reduced fat Swiss cheese, shredded, divided
Directions:
Directions:
Cook the noodles according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, saute the mushrooms and onion in butter until tender. Add the flour, bouillon, garlic salt, pepper, and thyme; stir until blended. Gradually add milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Add broccoli; cook for 3 -5 minutes. Stir in cottage cheese and three fourths of the Swiss cheese. Drain noodles.

In a 13 x 9 x 2 baking dish coated with nonstick cooking spray, layer three noodles and a third of the sauce. Repeat layers twice. Cover and bake at 350º for 35-40 minutes or until bubbly and broccoli is tender. Sprinkle top with remaining Swiss cheese. Bake, uncovered, for 5 minutes longer until the Swiss cheese is melted. Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting.

Yield: 12 servings.

Personal Notes:
I used Smart Balance instead of the butter and sprinkled some Italian seasonings in the sauce. Used 12 ounces of Swiss cheese slices (rather than 10 ounces shredded) -- and layered them over the sauce mixture. When time to uncover, I sprinkled Parmesan cheese on top so top would brown. (Also bought whole broccoli rather than florets and diced the stems. Added them in when cooking the onions and mushrooms so they would soften up.)

P.S. Uncle Don loves it.
