Lasagna in the Healthy Style
This Italian Lasagna has less fat and calories, but all
of the taste. Using low-fat cheeses and extra-lean
ground beef saves 100 calories and 10 grams of fat per
serving.
Ingredients
1 pound extra-lean ground beef
1 onion, chopped
1 1/2 teaspoons dried basil
3/4 teaspoon oregano
3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 can (6 ounces) unsalted tomato paste
1 can (8 ounces) unsalted tomato sauce
3 1/2 cups water
3/4 pound uncooked lasagna noodles
1 cup low-fat cottage cheese
3 cups shredded low-fat mozzarella cheese
Directions
1.
Preheat the oven to 325 F. Lightly coat a 9-by-13 pan
with cooking spray.
2.
To make the sauce, in a large saucepan combine the
ground beef and onion. Cook over medium heat until the
ground beef is browned and onion is translucent. Drain
well.
3.
Add the basil, oregano, garlic powder, tomato paste,
tomato sauce and water. Stir to mix evenly.
4.
Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
5.
Put 1/2 cup of the sauce in the bottom of the prepared
pan. Cover with a layer of uncooked lasagna noodles, 1/3
of the remaining sauce, 1/3 cup cottage
cheese and 1 cup mozzarella cheese.
6.
Repeat until the ingredients are used up. Cover with
aluminum foil and bake until the noodles are soft and
the cheese is lightly browned, about 1 hour and 20
minutes.
Yield: 8 servings.
