Easy Pasta Casserole
Ingredients:
- 8 oz. pasta (I like to use tri-color spirals)
- 3-4 cups frozen veggie medley (carrots, broccoli, cauliflower or other combo)
- 1 1/2 cup fat-free white cheese (see note)
- salt, pepper, onion powder, other spices to taste
- wheat germ
- grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Preparation:
Cook and drain the pasta. DefrosTbsp the veggies and add. Add the cheese and seasonings.
Put into a 2 quart casserole dish, which has been sprayed with Pam (or equivalent). Sprinkle liberally with wheat germ and lightly with Parmesan (if used). Cook in microwave for 15 minutes.
Note: In Israel we can get a soft white cheese that is .1% fat. You could undoubtedly substitute fat-free cottage cheese. Sometimes I eliminate the cheese and use canned tomato sauce or soup instead.
