Pizza lasagna is a nice change from regular lasagna. We like to have it about once a month.

The best part of making Pizza Lasagna is that you can alter the recipe to suit your tastes. Other toppings you can add include onions, mushrooms, peppers, etc.
Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 13" x 9" cake pan with cooking spray and line the bottom of the cake pan with a layer of lasagna noodles. I have found that you do not need to cook the noodles first. They cook just fine this way and it removes a step that is not needed.
Next ladle on some of the pasta sauce; then the meat toppings; cottage cheese and then mozzarella cheese and a bit of Italian seasoning. Just keep alternating layers this way.
Also, I have found when making lasagnas that cottage cheese tastes just like the ricotta cheese and is cheaper to buy so I use cottage cheese instead.
The final layer is when we add in the black olives.
For our family, it is just enough. Add a bunch of mozzarella cheese to the top and sprinkle on some Parmesan cheese and bake for 30 minutes.
