I added a pound of cooked ground beef to the pasta, pasta water, cottage cheese, egg, cheese and sauce mixture without adding any more sauce than what was called for, and it worked out fine.

I made this recipe for me and my elderly parents last night. Not only was it really easy and delicious, we have lots of leftovers to continue enjoying on at both homes. I did add a pound of ground beef to make it a heartier meal, as you suggested, and goodness, is it yummy! My parents kept saying so.

Hi Hayley! You can assemble the casserole in a freezer-safe dish up to baking. Let cool, cover tightly with foil, and freeze. From freezer, bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes covered, and then uncovered for 15 additional minutes.

Thank you so much for sharing! We love this recipe at our house and make it all the time. If I were to freeze it to eat later, would I bake it for 30 min before freezing or just freeze and bake after when ready to eat?

Hi Luna! I would suggest browning up to 1 pound of Italian sausage or beef until cooked through. Mix in with the pasta. You may want to add an additional 1/2 cup of sauce.

How do I cook if I add ground beef or sausage?

Hi Jennifer! As long as you bake half this recipe in an 8x8 or 9x9 pan, the baking time will remain the same. Enjoy!

Hi Lauren! Thanks for sharing! The added water does make a huge difference.

This recipe is such a wonderful base! I'm convinced that adding the reserved pasta water is what makes this so special! I did make my own sauce, so that could greatly alter the flavor. But that pasta water kept everything from drying out! I added Italian turkey sausage, shredded zucchini and used whole wheat macaroni noodles. What's so great about this recipe is that is so easy to add to it and to make it the right fit for your family. Thanks for sharing!!
