I made this for Mother's Day. I added spinach, Feta cheese and spices. I could not get the cottage cheese to blend well with the egg and had to cook longer than 45 minutes. My DD and DH thought there were to many veges, but I liked it. I may try using a mixture of whole eggs and whites next time. - 5/9/10
