I was looking over the blog this morning, when I realized that I never shared with you the recipe for what was my favorite food as a child. My mother called it "Macaroni and Cheese". Stop laughing. She did not use macaroni noodles, nor cheddar cheese. She used kluski noodles, butter, and cottage cheese.
 |
| Boil the noodles according to directions and drain. |
 |
| Melt the butter in a pan in the oven at 350 degrees. Remove from the oven. Stir the drained noodles around in the butter. |
 |
| Pour cottage cheese over the noodles evenly. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Serve on plates, salt and pepper (maybe even paprika and garlic salt) to taste. |
My mom use to used to fry the noodles in butter, then heat with cottage cheese on top. I prefer to make this in the oven, because then I don't have to stand over it and watch it. It comes out the same.
This recipe is delicious at any time, but I find myself remembering it mostly on Friday's during Lent, when we (Catholics) are supposed to refrain from eating meat. (Not much of a sacrifice with this recipe, though.)
