This cottage cheese egg bake is the easiest and best casserole I have tried so far. My sweet mother-in-law shared this recipe with me. I make 3 or 4 at a time and keep them in the freezer to take to gatherings, feed guests, or surprise kids. Green chiles make it pop!

Anyone that has been to the movie theatre with me has tasted popcorn and red licorice together and has appreciated the flavours as much as I have!
