This is a fluffy, eggy casserole style dish. You can improvise whatever filling you like, as it is basically a rectangular quiche with no crust. This is the basic recipe as nabbed from Ellen & Heather's recipe box:
10 eggs
1 lb grated cheese
2 cups cottage cheese
1/2 cup flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 cup butter
1 can green chiles (about a cup?)
Combine ingredients and pour into a buttered casserole dish, bake at 350 for 45-60 minutes. This is super easy and super adaptable. Instead of green chiles I used sauteed red & yellow onions, red padron peppers and celery, and I layered some sliced tomatoes on top with some cheese on them. I also used only .75 lb of cheese and nixed the butter - the result was still tasty. I added saffron, which had questionable results.

"questionable results"?
...saffron is the bee's knees! what about it, exactly, did you find questionable?
::leaves in a huff::
...no, but seriously- this sounds good :) kind of like breakfast for dinner, but for real.
Hahaha, don't get me wrong about saffron! Perhaps I'm a little over-saffron'd because my family has so much of it (from the grandfather) and it goes into so many things. It was, in fact, quite good.
And I think this is supposed to be a breakfast thing, but depending on what you put in it, it could be right for just about any meal.
I miss summer!
