This was really easy to make. I put the filling in a ziploc, and squeezed it into the noodles. I thought that it could use maybe some onions? The cheese was a good blend, even though I was a little nervous about the cottage cheese. My whole family ate it up, and liked it. My husband and I agreed it tasted like something we could buy at a restaurant. Will make it again!!
