Lazy Lasagna

As promised, here's my recipe for the Lazy Lasagna that we had for dinner this evening. I forgot to take a photo but, as discussed yesterday, it's some stuff in a casserole dish, with some cheese on top. I made a half-recipe in the square, clear casserole. Look at my previous food photos and use your imagination. :-)

Lasy Lasagna

Ingredients
1 lb ground beef

4 (8oz) cans tomato sauce

2 tsp Italian seasoning

1/4 tsp garlic

4 packets sweetener
(Or an equivalent amount of sugar. I think one packet = 2 teaspoons sugar.)

4 cups hot cooked noodles
(I use egg noodles. I guess any pasta would be fine.)

2 cups cottage cheese
(I use fat-free.)

2 cups mozzarella cheese
(Tonight I used Kraft™ Bistro Blend, or something like that. Mozzarella with basil and sundried tomatoes, I think?)

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray 9” x 13” baking dish w/cooking spray.
2. In a large skillet, brown meat. Stir in tomato sauce, Italian seasoning, garlic and sweetener.
3. Stir in cottage cheese, 1 1/2 cups mozzarella and noodles.
4. Pour mixture into baking dish, and top with remaining ½ cup mozzarella.
5. Bake 35 minutes. After removing from oven, let set for 5 minutes before serving.
