We changed it a bit by substituting cream cheese for cottage, and may use ricotta the next time, but this was just a very tasty dish! Tasted even better the next day for lunch, since we brown bag constantly. Could've probably used more hot wing sauce, but then our Tender Tongued Child would've probably complained.
