Tortellini Lasagna

This recipe is not a true lasagna, but it has the same delicious flavors. It's easy to prepare and goes great with salad and bread. I suggest using seasoned spaghetti sauce and/or cheese to add a bit more herb flavor.

Tortellini Lasagna
1 jar spaghetti sauce
4-5 cups frozen cheese tortellini
2 cups cottage cheese
4 cups shredded mozzarella

Cook tortellini following package directions and drain. Spread 1/2 cup spaghetti sauce in bottom of ungreased 9 x 13 pan. Layer with half the tortellini, half the remaining sauce, 1 cup cottage cheese and then 2 cups mozzarella. Repeat layers.

Bake uncovered at 350ºF for 30 to 40 minutes. Turn oven to broil until cheese is golden. Let stand 5 minutes before serving. Serves 6 to 8.
