Yield: 6 Servings
1 lb Fat-free cottage cheese
1/2 c Plain nonfat yoghurt
2 lg Eggs
2 lg Egg whites
1/2 ts Salt
1/3 c Sugar
1 tb Fresh lemon juice
1 ts Grated lemon rind
1/3 c Diced dried apricots
1/2 c Raisins
4 Matzos

Preheat the oven to 350 F/175 C.
In a large bowl, mix the cottage cheese, yogurt, eggs, egg
whites, salt, sugar, lemon juice, lemon rind, apricots,

Soak whole matzos in a bowl of hot water to cover until

to cottage cheese mixture and mix lightly.
Pour 1 tablespoon margarine into a 2-quart baking dish and
brush a bit of the butter up the sides of the dish. Spoon
the matzo and cottage cheese mixture into the dish.
Sprinkle with the remaining tablespoon butter.
Bake for about 50 minutes or until set and top is browned.
Serve hot or lukewarm.

Note: The author suggests serving this for Passover as a
milchig (dairy) main dish or can also be served as a
dessert. In my family, this would have been served as a
side dish as an accompaniment to a dairy meal. This is a
nice low-fat version of a dairy kugel as many of the
kugels of this type can easily have double the calories
and almost twice the fat content. -- Judi Mae Phelps
