Almost Lasagna (Recipe)

This recipe is one of my favorites!  It tastes just like lasagna but so much easier to make.  No lasagna noodles! Use noodles your family will love. You can add extras to pack a punch or just leave it the way it is for your picky eaters. Serve it up with a side salad and garlic bread and your meal is complete! I love doubling this meal and putting one in the freezer for when I need a quick dinner.

Spaghetti sauce- 1- 20 ounce jar

4 cups cooked Pasta- your choice

1 Egg

1 C. mozzarella cheese, shredded

1 C. Parmesan cheese

1 C. cottage cheese

1 pounds hamburger, browned and seasoned

1/4 C. onion

1t. garlic powder

1/4 c. chopped peppers (opt)

Boil your pasta for half of the time on the box (do not over cook). While pasta cooks Mix remaining ingredients together in a large bowl. Add Pasta.  Stir until all pasta is covered in sauce and cheeses.  Pour into a 9×13 baking dish. Cover and bake for 30 minutes at 350*.

*For a freezer meal pour into a large Ziploc bag and Freeze.  When ready to bake, thaw and pour into baking dish.

For a little extra your can add fresh vegetables like spinach and mushrooms

Enjoy!
