Designated an ABC Casserole, because we found it so easy to prepare...Of particular note is the fact that it doesn't require any cream-of-whatever soup...I also like the kicky taste from the green olives (a favorite)...Serve with a tossed green salad for a nice meal! Ingredients:
3 cups medium egg noodles, uncooked (whole wheat, if available) |
1 cup 1% fat cottage cheese, small curd |
1 cup low-fat sour cream (cabot light preferred) |
6 tablespoons parmesan cheese, grated (kraft reduced fat, if available) |
1 teaspoon salt (optional) |
1/4 teaspoon tabasco sauce |
1/4 cup green olives, sliced |
3 cups cooked chicken breasts or 3 cups cooked turkey breast, diced |
Directions:
1. Cook the egg noodles per pkg and drain.
2. In a bowl, combine the cottage cheese, sour cream, 4 tbsp of the parmesan, salt and tabasco sauce (if you like more 'kick', add more tabasco).
3. Stir in the olives, chicken and the egg noodles.
4. Pour into a greased 2 quart baking dish/pan and sprinkle the top with the remaining parmesan.
5. Cover and chill 1 hour; then bake, covered, in the preheated 350°F oven for 35 minutes.
6. Then uncover the casserole and bake for 25 minutes more.
7. Variation: Use a different pasta such as fettucine.
