Sloppy Joe Pasta

1 pound ground beef
1 envelope sloppy joe mix
1 cup water
1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce
1 can (6 ounces) tomato paste
1 package (7 ounces) small shell pasta, cooked and drained
1 cup small-curd cottage cheese
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

In a large saucepan, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Stir in the sloppy joe mix, water, tomato sauce and tomato paste. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 5-8 minutes or until heated through. Remove from the heat; stir in pasta.

Spoon half into a greased 2-1/2-qt. baking dish. Top with cottage cheese and remaining pasta mixture. Sprinkle with cheddar cheese. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 30-35 minutes or until bubbly and cheese is melted. Makes 4-6 servings.
