Beefy Sour Cream Noodle Bake

My kids loved this dinner. Hamburger, noodles, and cheese always please them. This was comfort food, tasty and easy to make. This recipe is slightly adapted from The Pioneer Woman. Definitely one we'll make over and over.

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 tsp pepper

8 oz egg noodles

3/4 c sour cream

Brown ground beef. Season beef with salt, pepper, and some onion powder. Drain any excess fat. Add tomato sauce and simmer for about 10 min. Meanwhile, cook noodles al dente, drain, and set aside. In a medium bowl combine sour cream, cottage cheese, salt, and pepper. Stir the noodles into the sour cream mixture. To assemble grease a 9x13 casserole dish, layer half the noodles on the bottom then half the meat sauce, then half the cheese. Repeat layers. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes until cheese melts.
