Matzo Lasagna for Passover

Matzo Lasagna for Passover layers softened matzo with a creamy blend of cottage cheese and melty mozzarella, finished with a bright, tangy marinara. The result is comforting yet light, with tender sheets that soak up rich tomato flavor and a golden, cheesy top. It’s perfect for a holiday dinner or a make-ahead bake to serve a crowd during Passover.

Matzo Lasagna for Passover
  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. 2

    Soak matzo sheets in a large bowl of hot water until tender, about 30 seconds; drain.

  3. 3

    Mix eggs, cottage cheese, and 1/2 of the mozzarella cheese in a bowl. Pour 1/2 cup of marinara sauce into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking pan. Lay 2 matzo sheets over the sauce, then add another layer of sauce over the matzo. Spread 1/2 of the cheese mixture on top, followed by another layer of sauce. Keep layering until all the matzo sheets are used, ending with a layer of sauce. Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese over the top.

  4. 4

    Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted and the sauce is bubbly, about 30 to 40 minutes.
