1: Preheat oven to 180 degrees. Cook pasta for a few minutes less than packet instructions and drain.
2: Heat olive oil in a fry pan, cook onion, garlic, and mince until browned. Add pasta sauce and simmer for 10 minutes. Spread some sauce over the bottom of a baking dish.
3: Mix cottage cheese, egg, half of the cheese, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Combine the cheese mixture and cooked pasta into the sauce. Pour into a baking dish and sprinkle over remaining cheese.
4: Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes and then for another 5 minutes uncovered or until cheese is golden.
