Which is better for lasagna, cottage cheese or ricotta?

[Alfredo]

I'm trying to decide between cottage cheese and ricotta for my lasagna. Which one do you think works better? I've heard mixed opinions, and I want to make sure my lasagna turns out delicious. Any insights or personal preferences?

Both cottage cheese and ricotta can work well in lasagna, but they offer different textures and flavors. Ricotta is creamier and gives a richer, smoother texture, which many prefer for a classic lasagna. Cottage cheese is lighter and has a bit more texture, so it’s a great option if you're looking for a slightly healthier or less heavy dish. If you want a balance, you can even mix the two! It really comes down to personal preference and the type of lasagna you’re aiming for.

Hi. I use both; cottage cheese is healthier and ricotta is creamier, so you get the best of both worlds by using both of these cheeses in your lasagna.
