What You Need

lb. lean ground beef

jar (24 oz.) spaghetti sauce

1-2/3

cups water

1/4

cup KRAFT Zesty Italian Dressing

green peppers, chopped

cloves garlic, minced

oven-ready lasagna noodle, broken into quarters

cup KRAFT Shredded Low-Moisture Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese

It's for dipping and dunking and mixing-upping. And yes, for salad too.

Make It

BROWN meat in large saucepan; drain.

ADD next 5 ingredients; mix well. Bring to boil. Stir in noodles; cover.

COOK on medium-low heat 10 to 15 min. or until noodles are tender, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat. Sprinkle with cheese; cover. Let stand 5 min. or until cheese is melted.

Kraft Kitchens Tips

Special Extra

Stir 1/2 cup POLLY-O Original Ricotta Cheese into noodle mixture before sprinkling with shredded cheese.

Shortcut

Traditional lasagna can take up to 2 hours to prepare. Our version only takes 35 minutes. You save almost 1-1/2 hours!

Variation

Substitute 12 regular lasagna noodles, broken into small pieces, for the oven-ready noodles. Increase water to 2 cups and cook 30 min., stirring occasionally.

My family is very particular about food but this passed with flying colors.

I made enough to give to my Mother-in-law and brother-in-law and they both liked it. I am going to give this recipe to a friend to cook for her family and the Hunters that use her husband guide business.

Very easy to make. I added oregano, basil, parsley, and a bit of sugar. We like a richer tasting sauce. I also added about a cup of cottage cheese toward the end of the cook time. We also only had low carb lasagne noodles, but they worked great. Very tasty!

Sorry I meant green peppers, not onions

This was VERY good and easy to make, however my son did not care for the green peppers. I will probably leave those out next time. I added the ricotta cheese that was suggested to jazz it up, and I think it added good extra cheese flavoring. This was good with a lettuce salad and cleanup was a snap with only one dirty pan! The leftovers the next day were even better than the first time around!
