Ingredients

• 4 large eggs, beaten
• 4 cups (1 L) low-fat ricotta or cottage cheese

1. Preheat oven to 350° F (175° C).
2. Combine eggs, ricotta or cottage cheese, Parmesan and Pizza Seasoning in a large mixing bowl. Set aside.
3. In another bowl, mix Marinara Sauce with water – thinning sauce ensures proper re-hydration of pre-cooked noodles during cooking.

6. Add a final layer of noodles and sauce and top with mozzarella.
7. Bake, covered, for 40 minutes, or until mozzarella is melted and sauce is bubbling. Uncover and bake an additional 5 minutes, or until mozzarella is lightly browned.
8. Let rest on counter 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Try whole-grain noodles for added fill-you-up-fast fibre.
