1/2 Box of Barilla Plus Rotini
1lb 93/7 Ground Beef

1 cup Small Curd Cottage Cheese**
2 cup  Mozzerella
2 tablespoon Parmasean
4 cup Red Sauce

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Cook pasta to al dente and drain.

Add onion and ground beef to a saute pan and cook over medium heat until browned.

Reserve 1/2 cup mozzerella cheese and 1/2 red sauce.  Combine remaining ingredients with pasta and beef in a large bowl.

Spray a 9" x 13" pan with nonstick spray.  Place mixture in pan.  Add reserved sauce and cheese.

Cover and bake for 30 minutes.  Remove cover and cook for an additional 5 minutes or until cheese is bubbling. 

**If you don't care for the consistency of cottage cheese, either substitute ricotta or blend 1 cup of cottage cheese in a food processor. 

Cheers!  Jaime
