This dish combines creamy sour cream with melted cheese for a comforting and rich flavor. It’s easy to make and perfect for busy weeknights. The noodles soak up the sauce, making every bite satisfying and hearty.

Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook them until they’re tender but still have a little bite, about 6 to 8 minutes. Drain the noodles, then toss them with some melted butter and set aside.

Step 2

While the noodles are cooking, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a casserole dish with butter.

Step 3

In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, sour cream, and cottage cheese until smooth. Stir in the Parmesan, chopped onion, parsley, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until everything is well combined.

Step 4

Add the buttered noodles to the mixture and gently toss to coat them evenly. Pour everything into the prepared dish.

Step 5

Pop the casserole in the oven and bake for about 20 minutes, or until it’s heated through and bubbly. Let it sit for a few minutes before serving.
