1/2 cup water
1 package (10 ounce size) Italian sausages, thawed and chopped
1 can (8 ounce size) no salt-added tomato sauce
1 carton (12 ounce size) low-fat cottage cheese

directions
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.

Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
