- This is a recipe my mom always made while I was growing up, and even as a veggie-phobic child I liked it! It wasn't too high-fat to begin with, and when I tried it adapted to fat-free Icouldn't tell the difference!
- Wash chard and remove stems, then chop into bite-sized pcs. Cook quickly in a heavy pan with no added water or possibly oil, stirring constantly till wilted.
- Drain very well, saving the juice for stock.
- Beat together cheese, cottage cheese, egg whites, lemon juice, and salt.
- Stir one c. of this mix into the chard. Put into a Pam'd 8x8" pan and press down firmly with a fork. Spread remaining cheese mix over top and sprinkle with bread crumbs and paprika.
- Bake in a preheated 350 F oven for 30 min, or possibly till set (it took my oven about 35-40 min). Allow to stand several min before cutting into squares and serving.
- Variations:(1) serve chilled with sliced tomatoes and chopped parsley;
- (2) include sauted onions & mushrooms with the chard.
- Notes: This is great at brunches or possibly potlucks. It also freezes wonderfully.
