Easy Pasta Bake

1/2 lb. ground beef
1/4 cup chopped onions
1 clove garlic, minced
Salt and pepper
1 3/4 cups prepared pasta sauce, any flavor
1/4 cup water
1/2 of a 9-oz. package cheese- OR vegetable-filled refrigerated
tortellini OR ravioli
1/4 cup shredded Italian cheese blend
Chopped fresh parsley (optional)

Brown ground beef with onions and garlic in large nonstick skillet over
medium heat 8 to 10 minutes or until beef is no longer pink, breaking up
into 3/4-inch crumbles. Pour off drippings; season with salt and pepper,
as desired. Stir in pasta sauce and water.

Spray 2 (2-cup) baking dishes with nonstick cooking spray. Arrange
uncooked pasta evenly on bottom of each baking dish, dividing evenly.
Spoon beef mixture evenly over pasta; sprinkle cheese evenly over beef
mixture. Cover baking dishes with nonstick foil. Bake in preheated
350-degree oven 30 minutes. Uncover and bake an additional 5 minutes.
Sprinkle with parsley.
