Tips
- Store everything frozen; no need to thaw, just microwave with 2-3 tablespoons of milk or water for 3-4 minutes, mix, then microwave another 1-2 minutes. Add more liquid to reconstitute the sauce/increase creaminess.
- Blend the cottage cheese for 2-3 minutes until completely smooth. Heating it slightly in the microwave can help.
