Three Cheese Rice Lasagna
A cheesy baked dish layering rice with marinara sauce and three types of cheese. It’s a fun lasagna alternative for gluten-free diets or just a delicious twist on a classic.
Ingredients:
- 1 (14 ounce) jar meatless spaghetti sauce
- 1 (4.5 ounce) jar sliced mushrooms, drained
- 1 cup 1% cottage cheese 1 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
- 1 egg white
- 3 cups cooked long-grain rice
- 2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
Directions:
- In a small bowl, combine spaghetti sauce and mushrooms; set aside. In another bowl, combine the cottage cheese, mozzarella cheese and egg white; mix well.
- In a microwave-safe 8-in. square baking dish coated with nonstick cooking spray, layer a third of the sauce, half of the rice and half of the cottage cheese mixture; repeat layers. Top with the remaining sauce. Microwave at 50% power for 10-15 minutes or until heated through. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
