Robee, I was thinking I should have taken a picture the last time I made it, but I wasn't originally planning on posting the recipe. I'll try to make it again this week and take a picture of it this time
I'll also try to do the same for the enchilada recipe.

This sounds pretty good. I might try my own twist by substituting the cottage cheese with cheddar cheese. I know its less healthy...but I'm sure it tastes gooood!

Sounds pretty nice, any chance of a pic of the final product?
My girlfriend has slowly been turning me more and more vegan (She writes a at My Vegan Planet, she has been a vegan shef for a while!) This does however mean that I have to keep an eye out for veggie recipes like this for her, she loves to learn new things!
