Number of Servings: 8

Ingredients

    1 box Rotini Pasta (or lasagna noodles if you want to layer with those. I'm lazy :)
    Can of Petite Diced Tomatos
    Jar of Ragu Pasta Sauce (used Sauteed Onion & Garlic)
    2 cup Container of Low Fat Cottage Cheese
    1 Tbs of Basil Pesto
    1/2 cup diced Onion
    1lb of ground Turkey

Directions

* Brown Ground Turkey in pot with onion. (I use nonstick)
* After turkey is cooked, add tomatos and pasta sauce, along with the pasta jar filled with hot water.
*Add boxed pasta. I used Ronzoni quick cook so this was faster, bring to a low boil, reduce heat to Low and simmer till pasta is tender.
*While pasta is cooking, put about 1 Tbs of Pesto sauce into the container of cottage cheese and mix.
*Layer half of the pasta mixture into 13x9 casserole dish. Top carefully with the cottage cheese mixture and spread evenly over the top. Carefully add the rest of the pasta mixture over the cheese mix. Try not to mix the layers up.
*You can top with shredded cheese. I didn't include it in the recipe but topped half of mine with cheese for the family. My portion didn't have it so it's not included here.
*Cook on 350 for around 20 min to heat through and melt cheese on top if you used it.

I figured on around 8 dinner size portions
