This was so, so good. Cheesy and meaty and gooey and everything you want in baked pasta. I've tried a lot of different methods for baked pasta. Using cottage cheese is a fantastic way to keep it moist (when usually baked pasta gets all dried up. For me anyways.) Made for PAC Spring 2009 Btw, did I say how good this was? Mmm, can't wait for leftovers.
