Cottage Cheese Pizza Bake Ingredients
  • 2 cups cottage cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Spread half of the marinara sauce evenly on the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan, egg, dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
