Bowtie Lasagna

This one is from Tasty Kitchen. This is another super fast, filling, and yummy recipe. The sour cream really differentiates it from your generic pasta and tomato sauce dish. My kids also LOVED this! Here's what you need:

INGREDIENTS

1 pound ground beef
1 pound bowtie pasta
3 cups of your favorite spaghetti sauce (I just dumped in a whole jar...I don't really know if that is 3 cups or not)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 (or more) teaspoons Italian Seasoning
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup light sour cream

INSTRUCTIONS

(1)Brown you ground beef in a skillet & drain. Meanwhile, cook your pasta as directed on package.
(2) After pasta is done, drain it, return it to the pot, and drizzle the olive oil over it.
(3) Add EVERYTHING else to the pot. Stir it well to combine.
(4) Cook over low heat for about 5 minutes, or until it is warm and cheese is melted.
(5) Optional: Dump everything in a 13x9" casserole dish, cover it with some more shredded mozzarella, and broil it until it gets all melty and delicious.Serve and enjoy!

  2. Sour cream does not freak me out like mayonnaise. I don't mind cooking with it, but I'm not going to put it on a potato :)...don't you ever give me mayonnaise though. I am cringing just typing the word.
