Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef 93% lean
  • 1 small onion chopped
  • 4 oz cottage cheese low-fat
  • 4 oz cream cheese softened
  • 24 oz marinara sauce
  • 6 lasagna noodles uncooked
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 cup mozzarella shredded

Instructions

  • Heat a large skillet with a lid over medium-high heat.  Add ground beef and onion and, while breaking beef up, cook until beef is browned.
  • In a small bowl, combine cottage cheese and cream cheese and mix well.  Set aside.
  • Add marinara and water to skillet with beef and onion and mix well.  Hold lasagna noodles over the skillet and break them up into approximately one inch pieces (this does not need to be exact).  Mix the noodles into the sauce very well and be sure that all of the noodle pieces are covered.  
  • Reduce heat to low.  Place about six dollops of the cream and cottage cheese mixture evenly separated around the skillet.  Do not mix this in.  Sprinkle the Italian seasoning evenly on top.  Cover the skillet and simmer for approximately 20 minutes, or until the noodles are tender.
  • After the noodles are tender, sprinkle the mozzarella on top, cover and simmer for five additional minutes.
  • Remove skillet from heat and let rest for 5 minutes.  Serve with grated Parmesan and some hot garlic bread and enjoy!
