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.

I have made this recipe alot and family loves it. I actually ad more cheese to it. My husband likes me to make it when he goes hunting as it reheats easily in microwave when they are staying in campers.

Very good! Break the noodles up smaller so they cook faster and added minced onion! Will be making it again!

This was good but better the second day because all the flavors had time to soak in. I added in some mushrooms and onions and it came out good. It is super easy and very little clean-up.

When I make these types of recipes that call for ground beef I like to either substitute all or part with frozen italian meatballs. I just thaw them and toss in the food processor and add to the dish. Adds a lot of flavor and is quick and easy.

Lets just say my mom, 93 years old, who doesn't like pasta loved it, as well as the rest of my family.

This was very easy and good. I used the regular lasagna and increased the water to 2 cups and cooked for 30 mins and it turned out great. Would def make again.

The family liked this and will make again. It did make a lot of food for 3 for dinner, so have lunch tomorrow. Did not include peppers or dressing, but added mushrooms and onions.

LOVE IT!!! This was a lot of food for two, but I froze it and fed company two weeks later - They loved it and had a hard time believing that I actually made it.
