    I modified the recipe by using ricotta cheese instead of cottage cheese, and egg substitute for the egg whites. It is a little higher in calories but still overall quite healthy. My family LOVED it!!! They licked the pan and ate what filling I didn't use by itself! Definitely make again! - 11/17/11
