Spaghetti with Zesty Bolognese

So Kraft has this pretty cool idea here. Basically Kraft lays out your weekly menu for you - gives you the recipes and the shopping list and all you have to do is buy the needed items and then cook dinner! Oh, and all of the ingredients from the store are supposed to fit in one grocery bag, so it's usually pretty cheap too. We've had mixed reviews with them, but we found one that was really great this week. So, without further ado...

Spaghetti with Zesty Bolognese
1 small onion, chopped
1/4 cup KRAFT Light Zesty Italian Reduced Fat Dressing
1 lb. extra lean ground beef
1 can (15 oz.) tomato sauce
1 can (14 oz.) diced tomatoes, undrained
2 Tbsp. PHILADELPHIA Neufchatel Cheese, 1/3 Less Fat than Cream Cheese
12 oz. spaghetti, uncooked
1/4 cup KRAFT 100% Grated Parmesan Cheese

COOK onions in dressing in large skillet on medium heat. Increase heat to medium-high. Add meat; cook, stirring frequently, until browned. Stir in tomato sauce and tomatoes. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer 15 min. Remove from heat. Stir in Neufchatel cheese until well blended.

MEANWHILE, cook pasta as directed on package.

SPOON sauce over pasta. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
