Polish Egg Noodles with Cottage Cheese and Bacon will definitely appeal to lovers of Polish cuisine. So simple and homely. This is one of those dishes that will always bring to mind holidays at grandma’s or summer dinners at mom’s or aunt’s.

I ate pasta prepared in this way as a child and in college, because the dish is inexpensive and quick to prepare.

Nowadays, I make Noodles with Cottage Cheese and Bacon when I’m nostalgic for the old days. The dish has its own charm – cottage cheese, fried bacon and pasta with a pinch of salt and pepper, and nothing else. For me, it’s a brilliant combination.

  • 1 lb bacon

  • 1 onion
  • salt & pepper
