"This recipe is from the "Low-Fat Cooking" cookbook of the Australian Womens Weekly Cookbook series & was described as suitable for diabetics. DH & I would normally also use garlic & lemon pepper, so I showed them as optional adds. This recipe assumes the potatoes are already cooked, so the time does not include time to bake or microwave them. Enjoy!"

Step by Step Method
Step 1
Combine cottage cheese with onion, parmesan cheese, herbs & opt adds (if using).
Step 2
Cut a deep cross in each potato & gently press sides to open the cross. Fill & mound herbed cottage cheese equally among the 6 potatoes & serve immediately.
Step 3
NOTE - If you want a smooth texture or simply want to disguise the cottage cheese from your kids, use a stick blender to puree it until smooth & then mix in the herbs & seasonings. They will probably think it's the best sour cream they've ever tasted.
