Ingredients

16 ounces spinach, cooked and well-drained
2 shallots, minced
2 garlic cloves, minced
12 ounces fat-free cottage cheese
2 eggs, beaten
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon dried chili pepper flakes
salt and pepper
cooking spray

Directions

1

Preheat oven to 350°F.
2

Spray a non-stick skillet with cooking spray and saute the shallot and garlic until softened. (I had to add a splash of water to keep them from browning).
3

Mix the shallot, garlic and spinach together, and then fold in the cottage cheese, eggs and the parmesan cheese, sprinkle in the chili flakes. Add a generous amount of freshly ground pepper, and some salt to taste (I added about a tsp of kosher course salt).
4

Bake uncovered for 40 minutes.

The original recipe called for 2% cottage cheese, melted margarine, and shredded cheddar - I eliminated them to make this down from a 4 pt side to a 2 pt side. I think it tasted really good!
