Step 3: Prepare the Creamy Mixture
In a large bowl, combine the sour cream, cottage cheese, and shredded cheddar until well blended.
Allow the mixture to sit at room temperature while the noodles finish cooking. Bringing dairy closer to room temperature helps it blend more smoothly.
Step 4: Combine Everything
Add the cooked noodles to the slow cooker.
Gently fold in the sour cream mixture until the noodles are evenly coated.
Cover and cook on the WARM setting for about 10–15 minutes, just until heated through. Avoid boiling after adding the dairy.
Step 5: Garnish and Serve
Sprinkle with chopped parsley if desired and serve immediately.
