Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add fennel and onion. Saute 5 minutes or until tender. Add spaghetti sauce, water, sausage, and tomato sauce. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 5 minutes.
Combine cottage cheese and egg whites in a food processor; process until smooth. Place cottage cheese mixture in a medium bowl. Stir in ricotta, Italian seasoning, and garlic.
Spread about 1 1/2 cups sausage mixture in bottom of a 13 x 9 inch baking dish. Arrange 3 noodles over sausage mixture; top with about 3/4 cup ricotta mixture, about 1 3/4 cups sausage mixture, and 1/3 cup mozzarella. Repeat layers, ending with noodles. Spread remaining sausage mixture over noodles.
Cover with foil coated with cooking spray. Bake at 375 degrees F for 40 minutes.
Sprinkle with remaining mozzarella. Bake, uncovered, an additional 20 minutes or until lightly browned. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
