Three-Cheese Potatoes

SERVES: 6

COOK TIME: 50 Min

Everybody loves potatoes, but sometimes we'd like to change them up a bit. Our Three-Cheese Potatoes are a great alternative and can turn a simple meal into a feast!

What You'll Need

6 potatoes, peeled
1 1/2 cup cottage cheese, dry curd or pot style (1 16-ounce container is about 1-2/3 cups)
1 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons chopped scallions
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
2 teaspoons dried dill weed
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded Cheddar cheese
1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded Monterey Jack cheese

What to Do

Place potatoes in a large pot, add enough salted water to cover, and bring to a boil. Cook until just tender, 15 to 20 minutes; drain and cool slightly.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a (1-1/2-quart) casserole dish with cooking spray.
Cut potatoes into 1/4-inch slices; place slices in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, combine cottage cheese, sour cream, scallions, parsley, dill, and salt; add to potatoes and mix gently. Spoon mixture into prepared casserole dish; sprinkle cheeses over the top.
Bake about 30 minutes, or until light golden and bubbly.

Notes

If dry curd or pot-style cottage cheese is not available, use small curd cottage cheese but strain it first. You can make this dish lighter by using low-fat cheeses and sour cream, and you can cut down on the salt, if you prefer.
