Ingredients:

* 12 ounces uncooked spaghetti
* 1-1/2 pounds lean ground beef (90% lean)
* 1 large onion, chopped
* 2 garlic cloves, minced
* 2 cans (15 ounces each) Italian tomato sauce
* 3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
* 1 tablespoon dried oregano
* 4 cups (32 ounces) 1% cottage cheese
* 2-1/2 cups (10 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese, divided
* 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided

Directions:

* Cook spaghetti according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, cook the beef, onion and garlic until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add the tomato sauce, parsley and oregano; heat through.
* In a large bowl, combine the cottage cheese, 2 cups mozzarella cheese and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese. Drain the spaghetti.
* Spread 1 cup meat sauce into a 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish coated with cooking spray. Layer with half of the spaghetti, cheese mixture and remaining meat sauce. Repeat layers (dish will be full).
* Cover and bake at 350° for 45 minutes. Uncover; sprinkle with remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses. Bake 5-10 minutes longer or until heated through and cheese is melted.
