BEEF AND CHEESE BUNS 
3/4 lb. lean ground beef
1/4 c. chopped green pepper
1 1/2 c. tomato sauce
1/2 of 1/3 oz. pkg. dry onion soup mix (1/4 c.)
1/2 tsp. crushed oregano
1/2 tsp. crushed basil
3/4 c. low fat cottage cheese
1/4 c. Parmesan cheese
8 (6") French style rolls

In a skillet, cook meat and green pepper until meat is brown; drain off fat. Stir in tomato sauce, soup mix, oregano and basil. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer 5 minutes. Combine cottage cheese and Parmesan cheese.

Cut a thin slice off the top of each roll. Use a fork to hollow out the bottoms of the rolls leaving 1/4" shells. Spoon half meat mixture into the roll bottoms. Spoon cheese mixture over meat. Top with remaining meat mixture; cover with roll tops. Wrap individually in foil. Place on baking sheet. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes or until hot. 8 servings.
