Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Lightly coat a 9x9-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray and set it aside.
Cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain the noodles and set them aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the low-fat sour cream, reduced-fat cream cheese, low-fat cottage cheese, and egg white. Whisk the mixture until smooth.
Stir in the onion powder, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and parsley. Mix well to incorporate the seasonings evenly.
Add the cooked egg noodles into the cheese mixture, tossing to coat the noodles thoroughly.
Transfer the noodle mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Sprinkle the grated mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese over the top of the noodles for a cheesy crust.
Bake the dish in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese on top is melted and golden brown.
Remove the baking dish from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Garnish with additional parsley, if desired, and enjoy!
