Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups cottage cheese full or low fat
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 cup marinara sauce
  • 2 oz shredded mozzarella low moisture part skim
  • 20 slices turkey pepperoni
  • 1 tbsp grated parmesan
  • 1 tbsp fresh basil torn, for garnish

Method
 

  1. **Heat.** Set oven rack 6 inches from broiler. Preheat broiler on high.
  2. **Blend.** Blend cottage cheese, salt, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder until smooth, about 30 seconds.
  3. **Layer.** Divide blended cottage cheese between 2 oven safe bowls. Top each with marinara, mozzarella, then pepperoni.
  4. **Broil.** Broil 3 to 4 minutes until cheese is bubbly and pepperoni edges crisp.
  5. **Serve.** Top with parmesan and fresh basil. Serve hot with a fork.

Notes

Use full fat cottage cheese for the creamiest texture and best flavor. Blend cottage cheese smooth before layering for ricotta like consistency. Use turkey pepperoni for lower fat and even more protein.
