Notes
- Egg noodle substitutions: Take a look at egg noodle substitutes from the Gourmet Sleuth there are plenty of suggestions! If I don’t feel like making an extra trip to the grocery store I will normally check and see what other pasta I have in the pantry to use and it turns out just fine.
- Cottage cheese substitution: You can always use ricotta cheese instead of cottage cheese.
- Sour cream alternative: Plain Greek yogurt is a great alternative.
- Recipe slightly adapted from The Pioneer Woman.
