This recipe couldn't be any more simple. I was running short on pasta so was glad to find this variation using egg noodles. I substituted "Smart Ground" - imitation ground beef. It worked very well. Also used Mexican blend instead of the cheddar. I increased the cottage cheese a little bit too, so it covered the bottom layer. I will definitely keep this recipe around the next time I need a yummy, quick meal!
