Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, and shredded mozzarella. Add garlic powder and Italian seasoning for flavor. Mix until smooth, avoiding overmixing.
  3. Grease a pizza stone or baking sheet to prevent sticking. Pour and spread the mixture evenly into a circular shape about half an inch thick.

  5. Add your favorite toppings, then return to the oven for another 5-10 minutes, until toppings are melty.
