Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 12 oz wide egg noodles
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 15 oz can tomato sauce
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • Salt and black pepper
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup small-curd cottage cheese
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella

Method
 

  1. Boil salted water, cook egg noodles until al dente, about 8 minutes, drain and set aside.
  2. Brown beef and onion in a skillet over medium-high heat, breaking up meat, about 6-8 minutes. Stir in garlic and Italian seasoning, cook 30 seconds, drain fat, and season.
  3. Combine sour cream, cottage cheese, Parmesan, and egg in a bowl, stirring until smooth.
  4. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Toss drained noodles with tomato sauce. Layer half the noodles, the sour cream mixture, beef, remaining noodles, and mozzarella in a 9x13-inch dish. Bake 25-30 minutes until bubbly and golden. Rest 10 minutes, then slice and serve.

Notes

The bake will seem a little wobbly right out of the oven, but the 10-minute rest lets the sour cream layer firm up enough to cut into neat squares. If you’re using a glass baking dish, check a minute or two early; it retains heat a bit longer.
