Notes

Tips for making this recipe:

  • Removing some of the bread in the center makes a shallow area for adding the cottage cheese fillings. Makes it so much easier to eat!
  • Brush some melted butter and garlic on the bread to give it a 'garlic bread' feel.
  • To store: add to a covered container and refrigerate. Eat within 3 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer at 375 degrees for 6-8 minutes.
