    So true. There is nothing like a good quiche--this is just lovely! I love this crustless version is healthy (but definitely does not lack in flavorful ingredients). Pinning to try soon! Have a wonderful week:)

    This is soo Mediterranean and lovely looking. I was just thinking of baking a tart like this. Cottage cheese is great for tarts and it is light too. Love the recipe and presentation! Bravissima!
