This Cottage Cheese Zucchini Feta Bake is a creamy, protein-packed dish perfect for breakfast or a light dinner. Made with fresh zucchini, cottage cheese, and tangy feta, it’s flavorful, nutrient-rich, and easy to make.

  • Total Time: 50 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 2 cups full-fat cottage cheese
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1.5 cups shredded zucchini, excess moisture squeezed out
  • 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
  • 1 tsp garlic powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the cottage cheese and eggs until smooth.
  3. Stir in the shredded zucchini, crumbled feta, chopped dill, and garlic powder until well combined.
  4. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and smooth the top.
  5. Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the top is golden and the center is set.
  6. Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Squeeze excess moisture from zucchini to prevent a watery bake.
  • Swap dill with parsley or basil for a different herb flavor.
  • Add sun-dried tomatoes, olives, or chili flakes for variation.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days.
  • Reheat in the microwave or in the oven at 350°F for 10–15 minutes.
