This casserole is a simple, easy to prepare, one-dish, meatless meal. Great for brunches. Be sure to drain the spinach really well. For non veggies, you can easily substitute ground breakfast sausage or crumbled bacon if you prefer. Ingredients:
1 (16 ounce) container low fat cottage cheese |
1 (10 ounce) package frozen spinach, thawed and very well drained |
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (cheddar or pepper jack are good substitutes as well) |
1/2 cup ground soy sausage, lightly browned (i like litelife gimme lean brand) |
1/2 cup green onion, sliced |
4 eggs, lightly beaten |
salt and pepper |
Directions:
1. Thoroughly mix all ingredients. 2. Pour mixture into a greased 9 inch pie plate (I have also used a square casserole dish as well). 3. Bake at 350 for about 40 minutes or until center is set. 4. Once out of the oven, I usually let it sit for 5 or 10 minutes. 5. To serve, either cut into wedges, or squares, depending on what type of dish you used. |
