Creamy comfort food!
Ingredients:
1 (16 ounce) package elbow macaroni
1 (16 ounce) package cottage cheese
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup butter
1 (8 ounce) package shredded cheddar cheese
1 (10 ounce) can whole peeled tomatoes with juice
salt and ground black pepper to taste
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the macaroni, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until macaroni is cooked through but still slightly firm, about 8 minutes. Drain well.
3. Combine the cottage cheese, sour cream, butter, and cooked macaroni in a large baking dish. Stir in the Cheddar cheese. Arrange the tomatoes on top, then pour the tomato liquid over the casserole. Season with salt and black pepper.
4. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then mix the macaroni and cheese thoroughly. Continue to bake until lightly browned and bubbly, about 15 minutes more.
