Variations & Tips
For a lighter version, you can use ground turkey or ground chicken instead of beef. If you have picky eaters, try blending the cottage cheese smooth before mixing it with the sour cream to create a uniform texture. For some added veggies, consider mixing in some chopped spinach or bell peppers when adding the tomato sauce to the beef. You can also swap out the egg noodles for whole wheat pasta or a gluten-free alternative if needed.
