Instructions

In a large skillet, brown the ground beef or sausage over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and cook for another 1–2 minutes.
Drain excess grease and return meat to skillet. Stir in spaghetti sauce and water. Simmer briefly and season with salt and pepper.
In a medium bowl, combine cottage cheese, 1½ cups mozzarella, 2 tbsp parmesan, egg, and parsley (optional).
Spray a 5–6 quart oval crockpot with non-stick spray. Spread 1 cup of meat sauce on the bottom.
Layer uncooked noodles to fit the crockpot, followed by a layer of cheese mixture. Repeat layers, ending with a meat sauce layer.
Cover and cook on LOW for 3 to 5 hours, until noodles are tender and liquid is mostly absorbed.
Top with remaining mozzarella and parmesan. Cover and cook for another 10–15 minutes until cheese melts.
Let rest uncovered for 10 minutes before serving.
