In our quest to eat more meatless meals, I came across this recipe on the internet: Cottage Cheese Roast Rated: 4 out of 5 by 120 members Prep Time: 10 Minutes
Cook Time: 40 Minutes Ready In: 50 Minutes
Yields: 8 servings
"Cottage cheese is combined with eggs, oil, onion soup mix, walnuts and cornflakes cereal and baked in a loaf pan. A great substitute for meat loaf, it makes good sandwiches if you have leftovers!"
INGREDIENTS:
1 (16 ounce) package creamed
cottage cheese
4 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup vegetable oil 1 (1 ounce) envelope dry onion
soup mix
1 cup finely chopped walnuts
1 1/2 cups cornflakes cereal
DIRECTIONS:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a loaf pan.
2. In a large bowl, combine cottage cheese, eggs, vegetable oil, soup mix, walnuts and cereal. Spoon into prepared pan.
3. Bake in preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes.
It sounded awful but I saw that 120 people liked it so Tim and I tried it. It tasted pretty good.... but not good enough to get onto my recipe blog. It did deserve a spot on this blog for its unusual food combination.
Update:
Since putting this recipe on my blog. Tim decided the next day to make a sandwich with this "meat". For lunch he cut a slice and put it on his bread along with some vegetable cheese and lettuce. He said it was so good the second day that not only would he have this again but he thought it deemed a spot on the recipe blog.

Okay Jackie...that looks awful! But pretty cool that it is good as a leftover. I always loved cold meatloaf sandwiches. Sorry, never was much for cottage cheese though. Barb
Tim hates cottage cheese. It's not something you taste in this recipe. It adds substance to the dish. The taste is of the onion soup mix, which adds a lot of flavor.
The recipe had over 120 positive comments on the website so I thought I would try it. Now I'm glad that I did since Tim is enjoying it in his sandwiches.
