Ingredients

• 6 cups Special K cereal
• 2 cups Low-fat cottage cheese
• 6 large Eggs
• 1 medium, finely diced Onion
• 0.25 cup Butter (melted)
• 0.25 cup Low-sodium soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon Dried parsley
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a standard loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the Special K cereal and cottage cheese. Stir until evenly mixed.

Step 3

Add the eggs, finely diced onion, melted butter, and soy sauce to the cereal mixture. Stir well to thoroughly combine.

Step 4

Add the garlic powder, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper to the mixture. Stir again to ensure all the seasonings are evenly distributed.

Step 5

Pour the mixture into the prepared loaf pan, pressing it down gently with a spatula to ensure it is evenly distributed and compact.

Step 6

Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 55 to 60 minutes, or until the loaf is golden brown on top and firm to the touch.

Step 7

Remove from the oven and let the loaf cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, gently lift it out or turn it out onto a serving platter.

Step 8

Slice the loaf into portions and serve warm. It pairs beautifully with a side salad or steamed vegetables.
