1 (16 oz.) can tomatoes
3/4 c. tomato puree
1/3 c. onion, chopped
1 1/4 oregano leaves
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1/8 tsp. pepper
2 qt. boiling water
1/2 c. cottage cheese
1 (10 oz.) pkg. frozen leaf spinach, cooked, unsalted, well drained
1/3 c. process American cheese, shredded

Break up large pieces of tomatoes; place in saucepan with puree, onion and seasonings. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and boil gently, uncovered, until thickened, about 15 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Cook noodles in boiling water until almost tender, about 5 minutes; drain well.
