Sour Cream Noodle Bake

We made this recipe a while back & I had totally forgotten about it until this morning when I stumbled upon it going through my gazillion photos. 

It's kind of embarrassing how many pictures of food I have.  And it always makes me hungry when I go looking through them.  It's not good!:)

So, this recipe was really good and so easy to throw together.  Serve it with some green salad and Garlic Bread & you've got yourself a winner of a dinner!:)

Sour Cream Noodle Bake

Recipe adapted from The Pioneer Woman

PRINT RECIPE

1 pound ground beef

2 cans (8 oz. each) tomato sauce

1/2 teaspoon salt

black pepper

1 package (12 oz.) Egg noodles

1/2 cup sour cream

1 1/4 cup cottage cheese

1/2 cup sliced green onion

1 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Brown beef in large skillet.  Drain fat and then add the tomato sauce, salt and pepper.  Stir together and turn to low and let simmer.

Cook the noodles until al dente (according to package directions).  Drain and set aside.

In a large bowl mix sour cream and cottage cheese and green onions.  Add the noodles to the bowl and stir to coat. 

Put half of the noodle mixture into a baking dish (9 x 13 pan works or a casserole dish is good too).  Top with the meat mixture and then sprinkle with half of the cheese.  Repeat layers. 

Bake for 20 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
