I adapted this from a Light & Tasty cookbook. It was so delicious that I had to put it in the fridge before it was cool just to stop myself from eating it all! For WWers, this works to 6 points per serving. I use Ragu No Sugar Added Tomato & Basil sauce to keep the calorie/fat content as low as possible. Ingredients:
12 ounces whole wheat spaghetti |
1 lb 96% lean ground beef |
1 large onion, chopped |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
4 cups no-sugar-added spaghetti sauce |
4 cups 1% cottage cheese |
2 1/2 cups part-skim mozzarella cheese |
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese |
Directions:
1. Cook spaghetti according to package directions.
2. In a large skillet, brown beef, onion, and garlic. Drain fat. Add spaghetti sauce and heat through.
3. Meanwhile, combine cottage cheese, 2 cups mozzarella, and 1/4 cup parmesan.
4. In a 9x13 casserole dish sprayed with nonstick cooking spray, layer 1 cup of meat mixture, half the spaghetti, half the cheese, and half the remaining meat mixture. Repeat layers. Dish will be very full.
5. Cover with foil and bake at 375°F for 45 minutes. Uncover and add remaining cheeses. Bake an addition 10 minutes.
6. Allow to stand 10 minutes before serving.
