1/3 c. grated parmesan cheese
1 c. grated mozzarella cheese
1 c. cottage cheese (can substitute ½ ricotta)
1 lb. ground beef
½ c. chopped onion

Brown ground beef and onions in skillet. Drain well. Add spaghetti sauce to skillet and warm through. Meanwhile, cook spaghetti according to package directions and drain off water. While still hot, stir in butter and toss well. Add beaten eggs, parmesan cheese and garlic salt (if desired) and toss well again. Pour noodles into pie plate and push up along sides to form a “crust”. Add cottage cheese and spread evenly. Sprinkle half of the mozzarella cheese on top. Cover with spaghetti sauce/meat mixture. Sprinkle remainder of cheese on top during last 5 minutes of baking time. Bake at 350 for 30 minutes or until heated through.
