Beefy Sour Cream Noodle Bake
This is another one of those recipes that I wanted to share last year, but my pictures were really horrible! To be fair, it is kind of difficult to take decent pictures of casseroles – they’re just not pretty. What I can assure you is, this dish is easy and delicious – it’s a dish your family will look forward to time and time again!!

My husband loves this!
Hello, can you offer a suggestion to replace the cottage cheese with?
Thank you!
Could always use ricotta cheese. I’m not a cottage cheese fan!
Perfect comfort food — and I love how easy it is!
