Equipment
Ingredients
- 1/2 lb. ground beef
- 1 cup onion diced
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic cloves
- 2 1/2 cups Spaghetti Sauce or a 24-ounce jar of pasta sauce
- 1 cup of water
- 6 lasagna noodles breaking each noodle into 2" - 3" pieces
- 1/2 cup cottage cheese or ricotta cheese
- 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese grated
- fresh or dried parsley optional
Instructions
- Place the ground beef, onion, and garlic in a lidded, oven-safe skillet or braiser. Cook until the meat is cooked through and crumbly, approximately 5 minutes. You can drain the grease if you wish to.
- Add the spaghetti sauce and water. Stir to combine.
- Add the broken lasagna noodles to the pan and stir to coat the noodles with the sauce.
- Cook over medium-high heat until it reaches a boil.
- Lower the heat, place the lid on, and simmer until the noodles are al dente, approximately 10 - 14 minutes. Stir occasionally so the pasta doesn't stick to the bottom.
- While the noodles are cooking, combine the cottage cheese, mozzarella cheese, and parmesan cheese in a small bowl.
- Once the noodles are ready, turn off the flame. Add dollops of the cheese mixture.
- Place the pan under the broiler for 2 -4 minutes or until the cheese melts.
- Sprinkle with parsley and serve
Notes
If your noodles have absorbed most of the liquid and are not yet al dente, add a little more water and let them continue to simmer.
