Recipe Note

Test Kitchen Tips

Create a pretty burst of color and fresh flavor by adding a pinch of minced

 herbs to the egg mixture. Thyme and parsley are perfect candidates; 

try 1 teaspoon fresh or 1/4 teaspoon dried.

Cottage cheese is surprisingly versatile and almost disappears 

into this dish when baked.

Assemble a day in advance, and bake just before serving.
