Bowtie Lasagna

Here's a simple, great tasting, and quick dish. This recipe comes from a member at Tasty Kitchen. I've made this a few times and my whole family loves it. This is perfect for a quick weeknight dinner!


Bowtie Lasagna
(generously adapted by me)

1 to 1 1/2 lbs lean ground beef
3/4 pkg bowtie noodles, cooked al-dente
1 small onion, diced
1 (14.5 oz) can petite diced tomatoes, drained
3 cups (or more) favorite pasta sauce or marinara sauce
1 T olive oil (optional)
1 tsp salt (or less, to taste)
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp italian seasonings
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese or a mixture of italian cheeses
1/2 cup sour cream (I use fat free)
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese (I use reduced fat)

Cook ground beef and onion in a large skillet. Drain. Add diced tomatoes and cooked noodles to beef. Drizzle with oil if desired. Pour sauce over noodles and meat. Add sour cream, seasonings, mozzarella and parmesan cheeses. Mix well and heat for 5-10 minutes until hot. Serve with extra grated parmesan cheese and crusty garlic bread. Enjoy!
