Skillet Lasagna

So I was looking for a quicker and healthier version of the tried and true and stumbled upon this recipe, the original came from SparkPeople but I've modified to my taste:

Ingredients

    1 lb lean ground beef (96/4)
    1 small onion (chopped)
    3 Cloves Garlic (minced)
    2 can diced tomatoes with Italian seasoning (undrained)
    1-1/4 cup water +/-
    8 oz tomato sauce
    1 tbsp dried parsley flakes
    1 tsp dried basil leaves
    1 tsp dried oregano leaves
    1 tsp salt
    2-1/2 cup broken up whole wheat lasagna noodles
    1 cup skim ricotta
    1/4 cup fat free grated Parmesan cheese
    Dash Basil and Pepper (optional)
    1 egg



Directions

In a large skillet, brown beef with onions and garlic. Drain.
Add tomatoes, water, tomato sauce, parsley, basil, oregano, and salt.
Stir in uncooked pasta.
Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.
Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 20 minutes or until pasta is tender.
Combine ricotta and Parmesan cheeses.
Mix in the egg.
Sprinkle in basil and pepper to taste.
Drop cheese mixture by rounded tablespoons onto pasta mixture.
Cover and cook for 5 minutes more.


It's a great weekday version...quick and easy
