Basic Crustless Quiche - Breakfast for Dinner

1/2 c butter

10 eggs

1/2 c flour

1 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp salt

1/4 tsp black pepper

1 lb large curd cottage cheese

1 lb freshly grated mild cheddar cheese

Melt the butter.  Whip the eggs until fluffy.  Add the flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, cottage cheese, melted butter, and half the cheddar cheese.

Place the mixture in a greased 9" x 13" glass baking dish.  Top with the remaining cheddar cheese. Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes.  Then reduce temperature to 350 degrees and continue to bake 35 to 40 minutes or until the top is lightly browned.  Allow to cool a bit and cut into squares.

Optional add-ins

If you wish to, add any flavorings or ingredients such as onions, bacon, ham, zucchini, parsley, asparagus, broccoli, green or red peppers, mushrooms, etc. You may want to lightly saute veggies before adding to the egg mix.  Swap the cheddar for other types of cheese to pair with the additions. (For example, four cheese Mexican blend or Monterey jack with canned diced green chiles.)
