Túrós Csusza (Pasta with Cottage Cheese)
This túrós csusza recipe is great for nights when you get home and need something to wind down. It is a Hungarian dish I learned from my dad last year when I turned twelve. It consists of bacon, egg noodles, sour cream, and cottage cheese. Élvezet!
egg noodles
1

smoked bacon

cottage cheese
1

 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook egg noodles in boiling water until al dente, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain well and set aside.
  Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Crumble and set aside.
  Place drained noodles in a large baking dish. Stir in sour cream until well combined. Spoon cottage cheese evenly over the top of noodle mixture. Sprinkle with crumbled bacon; season with salt.
  Bake in the preheated oven until cottage cheese softens, 3 to 5 minutes.
