Directions:

1. Cook and cool noodles.
2. In a 14-inch Dutch oven, start sauce by sweating garlic and olive oil together lightly.
3. Add meats, onions, and mushrooms and stir. Add water, Italian and Chef's Choice blends, basil, and tomato dices and stir. Bring to a simmer.
4. Add tomato sauce mix and return to a simmer, then stir in parmesan cheese.
5. In a bowl mix cottage cheese with remaining seasonings.
