Ingredients:

26 oz. spaghetti sauce (1 jar)
8 oz. cream cheese
1 lb. ground beef (you could also use ground turkey)
¼ c sour cream
1 c shredded cheddar cheese
¼ c butter (softened)
8 oz. cottage cheese
8 oz. spaghetti noodles (uncooked)

Directions:

Prepare the oven and preheat it to 175 degrees C or 350 degrees F.

Apply cooking spray to the inside of a 9×13-inch baking pan.

Place a large pot with water on the stove and turn the heat to high. Allow the water to boil.

Add the pasta to the boiling water, then cook for a few minutes until al dente. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process.

In a mixing bowl, add cream cheese, cottage cheese, and sour cream. Stir everything until well incorporated.

Place a large skillet on the stove and turn the heat to medium-high. Add ground beef, then cook for a few minutes or until crumbly and brown. Remove and discard any fat that surfaces.

Stir in the spaghetti sauce to the skillet until well blended with the ground beef.

Spread 1/2 of the cooked noodles in the prepared baking pan, followed by the cheese mixture. Make sure to cover the noodles entirely.

Add the other half of the noodles over the cheese mixture, followed by the meat sauce.

Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake the casserole for 30 minutes.

Scatter the cheddar cheese on top and bake for 15 more minutes or until the cheese turns golden brown. Remove the casserole from the oven.

Serve and enjoy!
