Tofu Cottage Cheese (Vegan) image

Friends of mine make gave me this recipe and now I am so excited to try it! They use it mostly to make vegan lasagna, so we want to try it in place of the crumbled tofu in our recipe Recipe #238046 to see how it tastes. From the cookbook, The Best of Silver Hills Delicious Vegetarian Cuisine. The recipe says its great served on baked potatoes, in lasagna, or with rye bread. Cooking time doesn't include time to chill.
