I can't attest to the taste of this since I only found this while browsing for other cottage cheese recipes, but I thought I'd add this to this section for those who might like it.

But for anyone looking for a healthy recipe, this has only 64 calories and less than one gram of fat per serving, so it's also just a great low cal/low fat dish in general. If anyone tries it, please share with us how you liked it :)
