Ingredients

  • 1 cup Breakstone's 4% Milkfat Cottage Cheese (234 grams)
  • 8 oz 1/3 less fat cream cheese, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese, divided (120 grams)
  • 1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated (8 grams)
  • 3/4 cup pizza sauce (180 grams)
  • 1 oz mini pepperoni
  • 1/2 tbsp Italian Seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • Optional: fresh chopped parsley or basil

Instructions

  • Pre-heat oven to 400°F.
  • Add cottage cheese, cream cheese, Italian seasoning, and salt to a food processor and blend until smooth.
  • Remove the cottage cheese mixture to a large bowl and fold in 1/2 of the mozzarella cheese and all of the parmesan cheese. Spread mixture evenly in the bottom of a 8-9" skillet or pie dish.
  • Top the cottage cheese mixture with pizza sauce, then the remaining mozzarella cheese, and finally the mini pepperoni. Bake at 400°F for 15-20 minutes or until all cheese on top is melted. Turn the oven to broil for another 1-2 minutes until the cheese just begins to get golden brown, being careful not to over brown or burn.
  • If desired, top with fresh chopped parsley or basil, then serve immediately with garlic bread, crackers, or veggies.
