Makes: 12 servings

INGREDIENTS

  • 6 corn tortillas
  • 5 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 6 large egg whites, or 1/4 cup dried egg whites reconstituted according to package directions
  • 2 16-ounce containers low-fat cottage cheese

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Coat a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.

  3. Whisk 2 whole eggs in a large bowl until foamy. Add flour, baking powder and salt; whisk until smooth. Add remaining 2 whole eggs and egg whites and whisk until smooth. Add cottage cheese,
  4. Cheddar cheese, chiles and tortilla strips and mix with a rubber spatula. Pour into the prepared baking dish.
  5. Bake the casserole until set in the center and golden on top, 40 to 50 minutes. Let cool for 5 to 10 minutes. Cut into squares. Serve with salsa.
