Southwestern flavors for true cheese lovers. It's so easy but the finished wedges make you look like a professional chef.

What You'll Need

  • 1 1/2 cup cottage cheese (1 16-ounce container yields about 2 cups)
  • 1 pint (16 ounces) sour cream, divided
  • 3 cup (12 ounces) shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
  • 3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chilies
  • 4 flour tortillas (8 to 10 inches)
  • 1 tablespoon sliced ripe olives
  • 2 scallions, sliced
  • 8 to 10 cherry tomatoes, cut in half

What to Do

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
     
  2. In a large bowl, combine cottage cheese, 1-1/2 cups sour cream, 2 cups mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, and green chilies.
     
  3. Grease bottom and sides of a deep-dish pie plate (or a round baking dish that's about same size as tortillas). Place one tortilla in pie plate and cover with 1/3 of cheese mixture (about 1-1/3 cups). Repeat layers, ending with a tortilla.
     
  4. Bake 20 minutes, or until cheeses melt and just begin to bubble out from between tortillas.
     
  5. Remove the oven and sprinkle with reserved cup of mozzarella cheese. Return to oven and bake an additional 5 minutes.
     
  6. Remove from oven and garnish top with olives, scallions, and tomatoes. Cut into wedges and serve topped with remaining sour cream.
