Cottage cheese casserole with nuts
Description
Tasty baked dish for the whole family. To prepare this casserole you can use leftover vermicelli that you didn’t finish from a previous lunch or dinner. That way the food won’t go to waste and you’ll delight your family with a good dish. Use cottage cheese with a fat content of 5‑9 %. Serve the casserole with sour cream, honey, jam, since it is not very sweet, although add sugar to taste. Serve warm or chilled. Perfect with tea.
