Method
1. Fill the Pyrex dish with vegetables – right up to the top – by layering them. I like to start with zucchini
3. Beat together eggs, cottage cheese and whatever flavour from the option above.
4. Pour egg/cottage cheese mixture over all vegetables and spread it out with a spatula. The mixture will LOOK like it is not enough…..it is very deceptive.
5. Sprinkle over the vegetables the topping.
6. Bake in a fan forced oven at 140C (285F) (normal oven 160C – 320F) for 50 minutes or until cooked. You can bake on a lower heat for longer if you are going out…..120 for and hour and half.
7. Serve with side helping of stir-froiled vegetables
