Add cooked pasta to large stockpot. While it’s still hot, mix in the shredded cheese.

Add the sour cream, cottage cheese, and milk to the pasta and stir to combine. Add the spices and green onions and stir until well combined.

Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with cooking spray. Spread the mac and cheese mixture into the dish.

Combine the melted butter, bread crumbs, and paprika and sprinkle evenly over the mac and cheese. Bake for 30 minutes, until mixture is bubbly and melty and the bread crumbs are browned.
