"Kitchen Sink" Egg Bake - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    6 eggs
    1 pint cottage cheese (I use fat free)
    2 cups grated cheese, of choice (I like Swiss best)
    1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach
    2 cups cooked beef or 2 cups cooked chicken, bite-size
    salt
    pepper
    herbs
    spices (see below)
    olive oil flavored cooking spray or Pam cooking spray
    more grated cheese, for top,if desired
    2 -3 tablespoons toasted wheat germ
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 325\u00b0.
    Thaw spinach, and squeeze out as MUCH moisture as possible.
    Beat the eggs in medium bowl.
    Stir in the cottage cheese, grated cheese, spinach and seasonings; stir until mixed thoroughly.
    (Note: Seasoning depends on choice of cheese& meat. E. g. for Swiss w ham or chicken, use 1/4 tsp. nutmeg; for cheddar or jack w/ anything, use cumin, oregano and chili powder, or Italian seasoning.) Lightly spray glass 13x9 pan w/ olive oil or PAM.
    Distribute meat/chicken/ham (whatever1) evenly over bottom of pan.
    Pour cottage cheese mixture over meat; push w/ spatula to distribute evenly.
    Top with extra grated cheese if desired.
    Sprinkle top w/ toasted wheat germ.
    Bake 45-50 minutes, until set and slightly brown at edges.
    Let sit a few minutes out of oven before serving.
    Serve hot or at room temperature.
