Vegetarian Spinach, Cheese and " Sausage" Casserole
By: Kozmic Blues
Sep 10, 2003
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.
SERVES 6
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.

Loved this! Don't do soy sausage, so used regular hot, othewise followed it to a T. What a great base too, if one wanted to add other ingredients...one thought was roasted red peppers for color. Yum - Thanks!

This was really yummy! I used fat free cottage cheese and added a couple dashes of chili pepper to spice it up. Delicious! Will most definitely make again.

OMG! OMG! we loved this! This was the best healthy "comfort" food I've tried! I didn't have any vegetarian sausage so I just used normal hamburger-style veggie crumbles. Terrific, I will make this many times!!

A new favorite in our house and we are new to the vegetarian diet. It was surprisingly easy to make considering the delicious end result. I didn't change a thing, didn't need to.
