"Something a bit different. For healthier version use no-salt-added black beans, no-salt-added salsa, nonfat cottage cheese, light beer, and fat-free mozzarella."

I used spinach won tons, and I had a leftover bean dish that I used for this. I replaced the cottage cheese with cream cheese. This is a fun to eat and healthy recipe that everyone will enjoy! Great eats! Thanks.
