8 oz. wide egg noodles
2 Tbl butter
1/2 cup cottage cheese
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
salt and pepper to taste
Boil the egg noodles according to package directions. Drain and stir in the remaining ingredients. Garnish with green onions or a little paprika if you like.
I think the Stouffer's side dish recipe used ricotta cheese rather than cottage cheese. It was also a more orange color than the pic of this dish appears which I suspect paprika was used more heavily than just as a garnish. Oh... and double (at least) the butter. If you're going to have comfort food, you might as well make it worth it in the calorie category. ;-)
ReplyDeleteYou are right on all counts! And it was so delicious!!!
DeleteHey, this recipe looks great, thanks!
ReplyDeleteI’m not sure about the boxed variety of NR but the version I loved came frozen and was def very orange in color which I believe came from CHEDDAR cheese. I concur about the sour cream and cottage cheese. I also believe there was onion (possibly dried) and a bit of garlic. I’ve made lower fat and lower calorie versions but agree that if you’re gonna make it, make it right!
ReplyDeleteI’m very glad to know I’m not the only person who loved Stouffer’s Noodles Romanoff. I can’t imagine why they stopped making it.......They still make their Fettuccine Alfredo and it’s at LEAST as “unhealthy” and not as good!
ReplyDeleteSharp Cheddar is key and paprika.
