Recipe by Erin Martin, entered in the SF Food Wars’ 2009 Mac Battle Royale with Cheese.
Ingredients:
8 ounces macaroni
1 cup sour cream
3/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups sharp shredded cheddar cheese
2 cups small curd cottage cheese
1 egg, slightly beaten
1/2 lb bacon, diced and cooked
1 dash pepper, tabasco sauce and paprika to your taste
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, for the topping
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350. Combine everything into a big bowl—even the grease from the bacon (gasp!)—and mix well. Spread the mixture out evenly in a greased 9×13 casserole dish, and sprinkle as much cheese as you want on top. Bake it for 45 minutes or so. You’ll know it’s done when it’s bubbly and the cheese is starting to brown on top.
