Field editor Ardyce Piehl of Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin notes, This hearty casserole tastes like lasagna and makes a satisfying meal when served with a green salad and crusty garlic bread.
Ingredients:
4 cups uncooked medium egg noodles
1 pound ground turkey or beef
3/4 cup chopped onion
2 cans (8 ounces each) tomato sauce
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
1 cup (8 ounces) 4% cottage cheese
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/3 cup sliced green onions
1/4 cup chopped green pepper
additional parmesan cheese, optional
Directions:
1. Cook noodles according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook beef and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add the tomato sauce, garlic powder, salt and pepper.
2. In a large bowl, combine the cream cheese, cottage cheese, Parmesan cheese, onions and green pepper. Drain noodles; place half in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Top with half of the meat and cheese mixtures. Repeat layers. Sprinkle with additional Parmesan cheese if desired.
3. Cover and bake at 350° for 30-35 minutes or until heated through. Yield: 6 servings.
