Join the discussionThis recipe is missing the mozzarella instructions in the Freeze for Later recipe.
Also – if you make this for 6 servings it tells you to use 4 – 8×8 pans but only 1 box of 12oz noodles. This is absolutely not enough as it cannot cover and do two layers for 4 pans like instructed. There is also not enough cottage cheese or mozzarella if you use the calculations for 6 servings.
The sauce is a good base sauce, could use some salt to taste but definitely a great base sauce.
Hi Robyn! Thank you so much for the feedback. We updated this recipe to include the mozzarella.
For your pan size issue, for 6 servings this is a bit tricky. Our system automatically adjusts pan sizes for recipes like these and typically works well. However, due to the nature of this recipe, it isn’t fool proof for certain serving sizes.
For 6 servings, we would recommend bumping up your serving size to 8 OR using 2 deeper 8×8 pans instead of 4 or 2 of a pan size between 9×13 and 8×8.
