Bowtie Lasagna

I found this recipe on Pioneer Woman's Tasty Kitchen website. It is my favorite thing to cook for my family right now - everyone loves it!

  • 1 pound Ground Beef (I substitute with CHICKEN! 3 chicken breasts in the crock pot on LOW, with some water and Italian Seasoning. Start it in the morning so it's ready to shred at dinner time.) 
  • 1 Box Bow Tie Noodles
  • 3 cups Spaghetti Sauce (Make sure to use spaghetti sauce that you like - nothing random :)
  • 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • ½ teaspoons Garlic Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning (or More, Make It To Your Taste)
  • ½ cups Mozzarella Cheese
  • ½ cups Sour Cream


If you're using ground beef, fry it in a small pan. Meanwhile, cook noodles according to package directions.
If you're using chicken, shred into bite-sized pieces. 
After noodles are cooked, drain and drizzle with olive oil. Mix in your spaghetti sauce. 
Add your meat, seasonings, cheese, and sour cream. Fold together and allow it all to combine and melt together, over low heat, for about 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
Really, the chicken made this dish go from awesome to amazing. I loved it with chicken - my 21 month old loved it, and my husband even liked it so much better than the ground beef. This is such an easy recipe and takes only 15 minutes to make!
