Instructions
Preparation Steps
Begin by gathering all your ingredients and preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, dried oregano, garlic powder, grated Parmesan, and pasta sauce. Stir until smooth. If you prefer a creamier texture, you can briefly blend this mixture until it reaches your desired consistency.
Transfer the cheese mixture into a suitable baking dish, ensuring it is evenly spread. Sprinkle in half of the shredded mozzarella and gently mix it through.
Top with the remaining mozzarella cheese and scatter the optional chopped bell peppers on top for a burst of flavor.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden on top. Optionally, broil for an additional minute to create a crispy finish.
