-
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
-
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and onions and cook until the beef is almost completely browned and the onions have softened about 5 to 8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring often to prevent burning.
-
Add the tomato sauce to the skillet, stir to combine, and simmer while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
-
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
-
In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the sour cream, cottage cheese, pepper, onion powder until evenly combined.
-
Add the sour cream mixture to the noodles and stir to coat the pasta.
-
To assemble, add half of the noodles to a 9-inch by 13-inch baking dish. Top the pasta with half of the meat sauce, and then sprinkle half of the cheese over the sauce. Repeat the layers once again.
-
Bake for 20 minutes, or until all cheese is melted.
-
Carefully removed the baking dish from your oven. Serve immediately, or let sit for 5 minutes. We like to serve this dish with a green salad and crusty bread.
