Bake for 10–12 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
If using an air fryer, cook for about 7–9 minutes.
Garnish & serve: Let it cool slightly, then top with fresh basil or crushed red pepper flakes if desired. Eat straight from the bowl or with toasted pita or low-carb bread.
Tips:
No blender? Just stir the cottage cheese for a chunkier texture — still delicious!
Boost protein even more by adding cooked ground turkey or chicken sausage.
Use low-sugar pizza sauce or make your own with crushed tomatoes, garlic, and oregano.
