1 lb. ground beef (or ground turkey)
1 green pepper, chopped
1 onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 jar (26 oz.) spaghetti sauce
2 c. water
12 lasagna noodles, broken into bite-sized pieces
1 c. mozzarella cheese, shredded
Brown the meat along with green pepper, onion and garlic in a large saucepan; drain any excess grease. Add spaghetti sauce and water, bring to a boil. Stir in pasta, cover. Cook on medium-low heat 10-15 minutes or until noodles are tender, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and sprinkle cheese overtop; cover. Let stand 5 minutes until cheese is melted.
This is an easy, delicious dinner. It makes about 6 servings or dinner for 4 and leftovers the next day. Last time I made this I didn't have enough lasagna noodles so I used a box of spaghetti noodles broken in pieces instead, could have also used rigatoni or penne probably - very yummy and different enough from plain old spaghetti.
