Skillet Pasta

I got this recipe from my youth minister's wife when I was in college. It was one of the first things I made as a new wife.

Skillet Pasta
1 lb. ground beef
salt, pepper, garlic powder
2 1/2 cups water
3 cups mostaccioli or penne pasta
1 jar spaghetti sauce
8 oz. grated mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Brown beef in a large skillet.  Drain.  Season beef with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Add 2 1/2 cups water and bring to a boil.  Place pasta in the water and make sure it's covered.  Let boil until pasta is tender (this always takes longer than the box instructions tell you). Stir in spaghetti sauce.  Taste to adjust seasonings. Pour mozzarella over the pasta and then the Parmesan cheese.  Replace cover and let sit 3 minutes or until cheese is melted.
