Notes

  1. I use Good Culture 2% cottage cheese.
  2. For Protein, I used 93/7 lean ground beef but you can use ground chicken, ground turkey, or boneless skinless chicken breast.
  3. You can use your favorite cheese, such as Pepper Jack, Colby Jack, or a Mexican Blend. I use reduced fat to keep the calories down.
