Ingredients
- 2 cups cottage cheese
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cup parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
- 1 cup button mushrooms, sliced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 0.5 medium onion, finely chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon dried oregano
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and chopped onion, sautéing until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
Step 3
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook until they are browned and softened, approximately 5 minutes more.
Step 4
Stir in the chopped spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and set aside to cool slightly.
Step 5
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese, black pepper, salt, and dried oregano. Stir well to mix.
Step 6
Fold the sautéed vegetables into the cheese and egg mixture until thoroughly combined.
Step 7
Grease a 9x9 inch baking dish and pour the mixture into the dish, spreading it evenly.
Step 8
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is set in the center.
Step 9
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
