Fat Free Blueberry Cottage Cheesecake
"I love cheesecake and wanted to try something new with all of the blueberry I had in my fridge and realized I could make cheesecake with cottage cheese and cut the calories in half. It tastes so good and you'll never know its made from cottage cheese. My boyfriend didn't even realize haha."

This recipe did not turn out good on my first try. I was hopeing for a creams fat free treat and it was bland and gritty. -
Stunningly fantastic and deceptively nutritious! Our whole family loved this recipe, my wife most of all! She's a cheesecake fiend, and with this new diet we're on, she hasn't been able to take part in enjoying cheesecake in a while! This is a definite make-it-again-recipe and I'll be experimenting around with the same concept and new flavors! Made for PAC 2010
