Ingredients

1 cup wide egg noodles
½ pound ground beef
4 ounces bulk Italian sausage
1 ½ cups marinara sauce
½ cup cottage cheese

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Pour mixture into an 8-inch square casserole dish and top with mozzarella cheese and remaining Parmesan.
