Bow-tie 'Lasagna'
I made this last night and it was delicious. I love lasagna but don't always have the time to put it together. This tastes a lot like it but is so much easier. I found the recipe over on Tasty Kitchen. Here it is:
Ingredients:
Cook the ground chuck in a frying pan until fully browned. At the same time, cook the bow-tie noodles according to the directions on the package. Once the noodles are cooked and drained, add the olive oil in with the noodles and add in the spaghetti sauce.
When the beef is totally browned, drain the excess fat and add the ground beef into the sauce. Next add the spices, cheese, sour cream and stir it all together. Let it all warm up and melt together, over low heat, for about five minutes or until the cheese is all melted and yummy. Serve it up and enjoy!
- 1 pound Ground Chuck
- 12 oz. box of Bow-tie Noodles
- 1 jar of spaghetti sauce
- 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- ½ teaspoons Garlic Powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning (or More, Make It To Your Taste)
- ½ cups Mozzarella Cheese
- ½ cups Sour Cream
