I make a cottage cheese loaf for the main dish for my vegetarian kids.
Here’s the closest I could find on the ‘net, except you crush the Special K cereal before putting it into the mix. I’m trying to think of what you could sub for the G Washington packets....broth packets maybe?? If so, no added salt.

The cottage cheese loaf sounds very good. Thank you very much.
I think I want to try the cottage cheese loaf, so I will copy and paste it from the link you posted, thanks.
Cottage Cheese Loaf - Tanas version
1/2 onion, chopped
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter
2 lb. cottage cheese (I like Roberts small curd, in the navy blue containers)
3 envelopes George Washington Broth
5 eggs
5 cups Special K cereal
Melt the butter and cook the onions.
Combine all ingredients and place in casserole dish.
(I think the skin that forms on the top is really good so I use a wide, shallow dish rather than a tall, deep one). Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour. Eat and enjoy!

It’s done. It’s cooling. It looks beautiful.
I have a very few favorite recipes that I use for church dinners, to take to families when they have new babies, etc., and I have used them over and over for more than three decades now, my most-loved recipes. Have not added to them at all, probably the ones I now use I was using 30 years ago when my son and daughter were two toddlers at home.
As of today, I believe I have just added a new favorite.
In my life, that’s remarkable.
I read many recipes, try many recipes, but rarely keep them, it’s always on to more recipes I want to try, or else back to my tried and true favorites.
This cottage cheese loaf is an exception, I think. It’s going to be one I repeat, for the duration of my homemaking years.
I will find out tomorrow.

For reference, I will repeat the recipe now, thanks so much Shimmer1 for sharing this with all of us.
