Ingredients
5 cups uncooked egg noodles1-1/2 pounds italian sausage (or lean ground beef - this will make calorie and fat count lower)2 garlic cloves, minced3 cans (8 ounces each) tomato sauce1/2 tsp sugar1/2 tsp salt1/8 tsp pepper1 package (8 ounces) reduced fat cream cheese1 cup 1% cottage cheese1/4 cup reduced fat sour cream3 green onions, thinly sliced, divided1/2 cup shredded reduced fat cheddar cheese
Cook noodles according to package directions. Meanwhile in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, cook sausage (or beef) and garlic until meat is no longer pink; drain. Stir in the tomato sauce, sugar, salt and pepper; heat through. Drain noodles and stir into sausage (or beef) mixture.
In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese, cottage cheese, and sour cream until blended. Stir in half the onions.
Spoon half of the noodle mixture into a 13 x 9 inch baking dish coated with cooking spray. Top with the cheese mixture and remaining noodle mixture.
Cover and bake at 350 for 30 minutes. Uncover; sprinkle with cheese and bake 5-10 minutes longer until heated through and the cheese is melted. Sprinkle with remaining onions.
Many ways to make this an even healthier dish. Substitute sausage for 90% lean ground beef, use whole wheat egg noodles, use fat free cream cheese and sour cream. Use fat free shredded cheese. I used what I had in the house. The kids and husband love it!
