A Comforting Classic with a Healthy Twist There’s nothing quite like the feeling of pulling a bubbling, golden-brown casserole from the oven. If you’re looking for a dish that’s creamy, cheesy, and packed with protein, this Chicken & Cottage Cheese Pasta Casserole is the perfect recipe for you! Why Cottage Cheese? Unlike traditional heavy cream or ricotta, cottage cheese brings a creamy texture with fewer calories and more protein. It blends beautifully into the sauce, making each bite irresistibly rich without the guilt. Ingredients You’ll Need: 2 cups cooked chicken (shredded) 3 cups cooked pasta (penne or rigatoni work best) 1 cup cottage cheese 1 cup shredded mozzarella ½ cup grated Parmesan 1 cup marinara sauce ½ cup heavy cream (optional for extra richness) 2 cloves garlic (minced) 1 teaspoon dried oregano Salt & pepper to taste Fresh basil for garnish Instructions: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish.
