1 can (8 oz) tomato sauce
1 tablespoon Dried parsley flakes
1 teaspoon Dried oregano leaves
1 carton (16 oz) creamed cottage cheese

Directions

This recipe comes from Betty Crocker’s Microwave Cookbook and has been one of my family’s favorite’s for years. Nina 1. Crumble the beef into 1½ quart casserole. Cover loosely and microwave on high (100%) 3 minutes: break up and stir. Cover again and microwave until very little pink remains, 2 to 3 minutes longer: drain.

2. Stir in spaghetti sauce, tomato sauce, 1 tablespoon parsley and oregano.

Cover tightly and microwave on high (100%) to boiling, 3 to 4 minutes.

3. Mix cottage cheese, ¼ cup Parmesan cheese, the egg, 1 tablespoon parsley flakes and the basil.

4. Spread 1 ⅓ cups meat sauce in a 12x71/2x2 inch baking dish. Overlap 4 lasagne noodles on sauce. Add 1 cup cheese filling and 1 cup mozzarella cheese (reserve 1 cup mozzarella cheese for top after cooking.) Repeat layers with 1 ⅓ cups meat sauce, remaining noodles and cheese filling.

Top with remaining meat sauce. Cover tightly and microwave on high (100%) 10 minutes: rotate baking dish ½ turn. Microwave on medium (50%) until noodles are tender, 22 to 28 minutes longer. Sprinkle with remaining mozzarella cheese and 3 tablespoons Parmesan cheese. Cover and let stand 10 minutes.
