This had good flavour but it was really goopy! I wonder if adding an egg to the sour cream/cottage cheese mixture would have helped it set.

This was surprisingly tasty, even the non-WW'ers in the house liked it. I didn't have sour cream, so I used extra cottage cheese and then I added about a 1/4 cup of FF ranch dressing. ( I also added a Tbs of chili powder to up the spice a bit.) This definitely goes on my list of busy night dinners.
