I was going to post this recipe as I have the exact one with a few extra ingredients. My version adds 1 cup of celery and 1/2 cup of fresh parsley, cottage cheese is also optional (though I highly recommend it). This loaf is INCREDIBLY delicious, but it does serve more than 6... with my additional ingredients, I have enough for 2 loaves. I like to cook them in a muffin pan for individual portions, it is easier to freeze them that way and everyone gets a crunchy edge (which is my fav. part)! You've got to try this :) Thanks for sharing Redhead.
