Party Casserole

This is a nice change for people who love lasagna. It does taste alot like lasagna but with just a different flavor. I took this recipe from the Deseret News food section.


1 1/2 pounds ground beef
1/3 cup chopped onion
1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon basil
1 teaspoon oregano
3 8 ounce cans tomato sauce
8 ounces uncooked whole wheat noodles (medium-wide flat egg noodle best but any will work)
1 cup low-fat cottage cheese
1 8 ounce package fat free cream cheese
1/2 cup fat free sour cream

Brown ground beef in a skillet, add onion and cook until tender. Add seasonings and tomato sauce. Cover and simmer 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cook noodles according to package directions; drain and rinse.

Blend cottage cheese, cream cheese, and sour cream. Spread half the noodles in a large, greased casserole pan. Top with the cheese mixture, the remaining noodles, and then the meat mixture. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes or until bubbly.
