Skillet Bow Tie Lasagna

I got this recipe from my Taste of Home cookbook. It was SO good, and super easy. It is a new family favorite.

Skillet Bow Tie Lasagna
1 lb ground beef
1 small onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 1/2 cups water
1 can (14 1/2 oz) diced tomatoes
1 can (6 oz) tomato paste
1 T. dried parsley
2 t. dried oregano
1 t. salt
2 1/2 cups uncooked bow tie pasta
3/4 c. small-curd cottage cheese
1/4 c. grated Parmesan cheese

In a large skillet, cook beef, onion, and garlic over med. heat until beef is no longer pink. Drain. Add the tomatoes, water, tomato paste, parsley, oregano, and salt. Mix well. Stir in pasta. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes or until pasta is tender. Stir once. Combine cheeses, drop by rounded tablespoonfuls onto pasta mixture. Cover and cook for 5 minutes. Enjoy!
