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 (change servings and units)

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.

This was great. Super quick to throw together and easy and very yummy. I made it exactly to the recipe (except maybe a bit more of the soy sausage and onion than called for) Thanks! This is going into my favorites list.

Great recipe, nice flavor and easy to make. I did use sweet vidalia onion and breakfast sausage instead, added a little milk, italian bread crumbs, and parmesan cheese to the mixture. My kids loved it and so did I. This is a dish I will make again. Thank you!

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.
