Baked Pasta

Here is a version of my own creation from various recipes.  It tastes like lasagna and it's simple too! 

Ingredients

• 1 (16 ounce) package pasta 
• 2 cups small curd cottage cheese
• 1/2 C mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 egg, lightly beaten
• 1/4 t garlic powder
• 1 t dried basil
• 1 t dried parsley
• Spaghetti sauce
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

1. Cook pastas according to package directions.  Drain.

2. Mix together cottage cheese, mozzarella cheese, 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, egg, and garlic, basil and parsley and stir into the cheese mixture.

3. Spread thin layer of spaghetti sauce in the bottom of a 9 x 13 pan. Put half of pasta in pan, put half of cheese mixture on top, and repeat.  Spread spaghetti sauce over top to your liking, and sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese.

4. Cover and bake at 350 degrees for 25 to 35 minutes, or until bubbly. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
