Plain ol' marinara's got nothing on this meat sauce, with cream cheese, zesty dressing, ground beef and Parmesan. Plus, this dish fits your healthy eating plan.

What You Need

small onion, chopped

1/4

cup KRAFT Lite Zesty Italian Dressing

lb. extra-lean ground beef

can (15 oz.) tomato sauce

can (14.5 oz.) diced tomatoes, undrained

3/4

lb. spaghetti, uncooked

Tbsp. PHILADELPHIA Neufchatel Cheese

1/4

cup KRAFT Grated Parmesan Cheese

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

Make It

COOK and stir onions in dressing in large skillet on medium heat 5 min. or until crisp-tender. Add meat; cook on medium-high heat until browned, stirring frequently. Stir in tomato sauce and tomatoes. Bring to boil; simmer on medium-low 15 min., stirring occasionally.

MEANWHILE, cook spaghetti as directed on package, omitting salt.

REMOVE sauce from heat. Add Neufchatel; stir until melted. Drain spaghetti; place in large bowl. Top with sauce and Parmesan.

This was easy and even my picky daughter had seconds. It didn't say to drain beef, but I did anyway, before adding tomato sauces, and it still had a ton of liquid.

I add more dressing and One step for beef seasoning and mix the spaghetti and sauce together. Then baked it for 30minutes. This is an awsome recipe.
