Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup Shamrock Farms® Low Fat Cottage Cheese
2 teaspoons olive oil
½ small yellow onion, diced
1 green bell pepper, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (15 ounce) jar tomato sauce
1 (14.5 ounce) can petite diced tomatoes, with juice
3 cups uncooked pasta
2 cups water
1 cup baby spinach, or to taste
1 cup part-skim mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Add the Shamrock Farms Low Fat Cottage Cheese to a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Set aside until needed.
  • Heat a 10-inch skillet over medium heat and add olive oil and onion. Cook the onion for 2 minutes and then add in green pepper and garlic. Cook another 4 to 5 minutes and then add in tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, pasta, and water. Stir until everything is mixed evenly.
  • Cover and let simmer for about 30 minutes, until noodles are cooked through. You will need to stir the lasagna a few times to make sure that the pasta cooks evenly. This is especially important if using lasagna noodles because they have a tendency to stick together more.
  • Once pasta is cooked through, remove the lid and stir in the spinach and 3/4 cup of the mozzarella cheese. Next, top with the remaining 1/4 cup cheese and then spoon the blended cottage cheese over the top. Cover again and let cook for another 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted.

This lasagna is a bit too cheesy for my taste. I would use less cheese next time.
