Fast-and-Fabulous Egg and Cottage Cheese Casserole

OLGA HUNT
"This is the easiest and best egg casserole I have tried so far. My sweet mother-in-law shared this recipe with me. I make 3 or 4 at the time and keep them in the freezer to take to gatherings, feed guests, or surprise kids. Green chilies make it pop!"

Footnotes
- Cook's Notes:
- For a healthier version, I use low-fat, low-moisture shredded mozzarella and skip the butter and meat. It tastes just as amazing!
- Casserole can be made a night ahead and refrigerated or frozen for later use.
- You can use turkey bacon or Canadian ham in place of bacon, if you wish.
- Partner Tip
- Reynolds® Aluminum foil can be used to keep food moist, cook it evenly, and make clean-up easier.

This recipe is a blast from the past! It was all the rage in the late 1970's but we called it 'Chile Cheese Appetizers'. (I still have the hand written recipe card from my friend Tonia.) Ofte...

A fabulous and easy dish. Best I have ever tasted. I think the cottage cheese is the secret to light and fluffy. I halved the recipe and it worked. I did add chopped green onions and diced fr...

Really very good. I put the cottage cheese in a colander and pressed out excess liquid with paper towels. I used maple glazed ham instead of bacon. It also reheated well. May try with Cheddar or...

Very good. I made this a day ahead of time. Use an electric mixer to mix eggs, flour and baking powder before adding other ingredients. I also cut back on the amount of shredded cheese. I wi...
