Description
This Cheesy Tomato Cottage Bake combines creamy cheeses with fresh vegetables for a delightful low-carb meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups cottage cheese
- 1 cup halved cherry tomatoes
- 1 cup chopped spinach
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella
- ½ cup crumbled feta cheese
- ¼ cup chopped fresh basil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). This step ensures that your dish cooks evenly and achieves that beautiful golden-brown top that we all love. While it’s heating, take a moment to grease your baking dish so that the cheesy goodness doesn’t stick!
- In a large mixing bowl, gather all the ingredients: cottage cheese, mozzarella, cherry tomatoes, spinach, feta, garlic, oregano, and season with salt and pepper. Using a sturdy spoon or spatula, mix everything together until it’s well combined. The combination of cheeses and fresh veggies will create a rich, delectable mixture that you can’t resist!
- Once your mixture is thoroughly combined, spread it evenly into the greased baking dish. Make sure that the ingredients are evenly distributed to ensure all parts of the bake cook properly and are equally delicious.
- Place the baking dish in your preheated oven and let it bake for 25-30 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden. The magic of this dish happens in these final moments as the flavors meld together. Once the bake turns a beautiful golden color, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before slicing into servings. Serve warm and enjoy the countless compliments!
