MARTHA'S COMPANY CASSEROLE

This dish is a definite man pleaser and certainly qualifies as comfort food if you like creamy texture.

1 lb. ground beef
1 onion, chopped
1 tbsp. butter
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
2 (8 oz.) cans tomato sauce
8 oz. uncooked noodles
1 c. cottage cheese (ff)
8 oz. cream cheese (ff or neufchatel)
1/4 c. sour cream (ff)
1/2 c. sliced green onion
1/4 c. chopped green pepper

Brown beef and chopped onion in butter in a skillet. Stir in salt,
pepper and tomato sauce. Remove from heat. Boil noodles according to
directions on package. Drain. Combine cottage cheese, cream cheese,
sour cream, green onion and green pepper.

In a 3 quart casserole, spread half the noodles, cover with cheese
mixture; top with remaining noodles. Pour ground beef mixture over
top. Bake in oven at 350 degrees for 40 minutes. Serve hot. Can be
