Very yummy! I made as a side dish to Tilapia. Next time I will double the recipie, omit the salt, add onion and crumbled bacon. Thank You!

I didn't have cottage cheese so I messed around with the amounts a bit, and also added garlic. Mm-mm good! This is going to be my new fast-food-from-freezer staple. Thanks!

Awesome recipe...but the salt isn't needed at all! Will most certainly be making again.

Thanks, Marie. A good recipe. I made it exactly as the recipe is written; it was enjoyed by all. Used it as a side dish with broiled marinated salmon and fresh corn which I cut off the cob and sauteed. — Aug 8, 2005 Sorry, I totally forgot to mark 5 stars, and this recipe really deserved them.

I used this as a side dish for fish, but I think it makes a great snack too. You could make them in "minis" and stick a toothpick in for an appetizer as well. I used ricotta cheese instead of the cottage cheese and thought this was very tasty. We'll have these again for sure. Thanks for posting this keeper Marie!
