âThis tasty recipe is always a hit because itâs a little different,â says Margaret Peterson of Forest City, Iowa. Ingredients:
3/4 pound ground turkey or beef |
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, drained |
2 tablespoons onion soup mix |
1/4 teaspoon dried basil |
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano |
8 hoagie buns |
3/4 cup 4% cottage cheese |
1 egg, lightly beaten |
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese, divided |
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Stir in the tomatoes, soup mix, basil and oregano. Cook, uncovered, for 5 minutes or until heated through. 2. Cut a thin slice off the top of each bun. Carefully hollow out bun bottoms, leaving a 1/4-in. shell (discard removed bread or save for another use). 3. In a small bowl, combine the cottage cheese, egg and 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese; spoon into buns. Top with meat mixture; sprinkle with remaining mozzarella cheese. Replace bun tops. 4. Wrap each sandwich in heavy-duty foil; place on a baking sheet. Bake at 400° for 20-25 minutes or until heated through. Yield: 8 servings. |
