Frying Pan Lasagna

This is one of my favorite dinners to make, and one of the kid friendly recipes I actually found! I serve this with salad and bread, and it's one of the few dinners when I can honestly say that, " The kids cleaned their plates!" I will do my best here with measurements, (as I mentioned before, I'm not good with that, as I just eye stuff up and go by taste and with how much more it looks like it needs, lol)
The ingrediants I list are the brands we use and love!
1 jar of Barilla pasta sauce
1 lb of hamburger
1 green pepper chopped
1 box of Ronzoni Garden Delight rotini, or 1 bag of Wacky Mac
1 cup of Wishbone Italian dressing
1 bag of Kraft shredded mozzarella  cheese
1 cup of water

brown hamburger in frying pan over medium high heat until brown, drain,
add Italian dressing and green peppers,
stir and cook for 5 minutes.
Add 1 cup of water, pasta sauce, pasta
cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add mozzarella cheese, cover, let simmer until cheese is melted.

See? It's simple, quick, and doesn't take a lot of ingrediants! Not to mention that the price per serving can easily be under $2 per person! (If you have the right coupons!!) The hamburger will normally be the most expensive, and the rest of the items, when bought on sale, and with coupons, can cost next to nothing! Making this a great weeknight meal!!
We do grab the veggies from our garden for the salad, and the green peppers for the lasagna come from there too!
