Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, toss together sliced zucchini, chopped red bell pepper, and halved cherry tomatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, and dried oregano. Spread the veggies on a baking sheet in a single layer and roast for 15 minutes.
- While the vegetables are roasting, combine cottage cheese, large eggs, and half of the shredded mozzarella in a separate mixing bowl. Stir until well incorporated.
- Grease a baking dish with a light drizzle of olive oil. Start layering by spreading the roasted veggies on the bottom, then pour the cottage cheese mixture over them. Top with remaining shredded mozzarella and a sprinkle of grated Parmesan.
- Bake for 30–35 minutes or until the cheese is melted, golden brown, and bubbly around the edges.
- Remove from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before garnishing with fresh basil or parsley.

Notes
For optimal texture, drain cottage cheese if watery, and consider pre-roasting vegetables to prevent excess moisture. This recipe is customizable based on seasonal ingredients.
