POOR MAN'S LASAGNA
This is how I always fix my lasagna- I don't like messing with the real noodles :-) It's really healthier than you'd expect such a fulfilling meal to be. You can use ground turkey instead of beef. I have also made it with squash and mushrooms instead of meat- which was a nice change. It goes great with a big chunk of freshly toasted garlic bread... Edit: After some of the reviews I thought I'd mention that the pasta sauce I use isn't plain tomato sauce, but a flavored sauce that you'd eat over spaghetti (like chunky garlic mushroom flavor.)

Steps:
- Brown meat in a skillet. Drain fat from meat (I usually rinse it under warm water.).
- Meanwhile, boil noodles according to package directions (its OK if they're a little underdone.).
- Meanwhile mix the egg and cottage cheese in a bowl, and set aside.
- Spray a 9x13 pyrex. Coat the bottom with a very thin layer of pasta sauce. Layer about half of the noodles on top of the sauce. Layer the meat on top of that, followed by another thin layer of sauce. Layer the cottage cheese mixture on top of that, followed by the remaining noodles. Add the remaining sauce on top of the noodles (I prefer it thin on top, so that the noodles get crispy-chewy.) Sprinkle all of the cheese on top of the lasagna.
- Bake at 350 for 20-30 minutes depending on how crunchy you like your noodles.
- I have found that half of a container of cottage cheese is perfect, so I usually go ahead and mix the remaining half with an egg, and freeze it. It defrosts quite easily in the fridge next time.
- I also usually buy the meat on sale in bulk, and freeze it in pre-cooked portions. If you do that, you can easily put this meal together quickly. It's also easy to make 2 lasagnas at once, and freeze one for later. You can reheat it in the microwave, or in the oven at 350 for 20 minutes, covered.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil. Boil the noodles until cooked through yet firm to the bite, about 5 minutes; drain.
- Cook the ground beef and onions in a large skillet over medium heat, breaking the meat up into crumbles as it cooks, until the beef is completely browned, about 10 minutes. Mix in the tomato sauce; season with salt and black pepper.
- Beat the cream cheese in a bowl until smooth. Stir the cottage cheese, sour cream, green onion, and green pepper into the cream cheese.
- Layer half the cooked noodles into the bottom of the prepared baking dish; top with the cheese mixture, dropping it onto the noodles by spoonfuls and spreading over the noodles. Cover with the remaining half of the noodles, and spread the meat mixture on top in an even layer.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the casserole is bubbly, about 40 minutes.

LAZY MAN'S (OR LAZY MOM'S LASAGNA)
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Brown the beef with the optional onion, optional garlic, herbs, and salt and pepper in a large, ovenproof skillet (I use one that's made of castiron). When the meat is thoroughly cooked -- it will take 8 to 10 minutes -- drain off any fat and take everything out of the pan. Now put the still-frozen ravioli into the pan, breaking them up if they are clumped. Spread the ground beef mixture evenly over the ravioli, and ladle the spaghetti sauce evenly over the ground beef mixture. Over medium heat, without stirring, cook until the ravioli is heated through and beginning to brown on the bottom -- about 10 minutes.
- Take the skillet off the heat, lay the provolone slices over the ground beef mixture, and sprinkle the whole thing with the Parmesan. Bake for 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted. Serve hot.

Steps:
- Prepare Mac 'N Cheese according to directions on the box. While the macaroni is cooking, cook beef in a small skillet. Once beef is done add spaghetti sauce and mix.
- Once the Mac 'N Cheese is fully prepared, place 1/2 the macaroni in bottom of 8x8 baking dish. Then add all of the meat and sauce over top. Then add the rest of the Mac 'N Cheese on top of that. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese on top of macaroni.
- Bake in a 350 degrees F oven for about 20-30 minutes. Everything is fully cooked, so baking just helps it melt together.

POOR MAN'S CASSEROLE
This is a recipe that my mom made when we were growing up! It really is one of my families favorite quick meals! It is called Poor Man's Casserole because almost everyone should have the ingredients in their kitchen! This is a very versatile dish because you can add as little or as much of the ingredients to suit your family.
