10 oz ziti or penne
1 (15 oz) container low-fat ricotta cheese
1 cup mozzarella cheese, grated
3 tbsp Parmesan cheese
1 (28 oz) can pureed tomatoes with basil

Preheat oven to 375. In a bowl stir together the ground sirloin, garlic and onion powder, rolled oats, egg substitute, water, salt and pepper. Coat a nonstick skillet with cooking spray. Make 1 inch in diameter meatballs and saute in batches, on all sides until browned and cooked through. Set aside.

Cook pasta until al dente. Drain and set aside. In a bowl combine the ricotta and cheeses. Add garlic powder and red pepper flakes to canned tomato puree. Place 1/4 cup tomato puree in the bottom of a casserole. Top with a layer of meatballs, dollops of cheese mixture and tomato puree. Layer casserole topping with a few dollops of cheese mixture. Bake for 45 minutes until the ricotta is browned and the casserole is hot.
