Introduction

6 Servings
This recipe is from a vegetarian cooking class I took in Grafenwoehr, Germany. The original recipe called for mascarpone cheese rather than cottage cheese. I changed it to increase protein. The weights for ingredients are included to help standardize nutrition. The mozzarella cheese used was whole milk mozzarella. You can lower your calories and fat quite a bit by using part skim mozzarella.
