Default Beef & Veggie Cheese Casserole

I received this recipe in my WW news letter and thought it sounded good for lo-carbers. I don't know the count but it looks do-able.

Beef & Veggie Cheese Casserole
1 serving cooking spray
2 medium tomato(es), sliced
2 medium zucchini, sliced
12 oz lean ground beef
1 large onion(s), finely chopped
2 medium garlic clove(s), minced
1 cup canned tomato sauce
2 cup fat-free cottage cheese
1 large egg yolk(s)
1/2 cup low-fat shredded cheddar cheese
1 tbsp parsley, oregano or rosemary, chopped
1/8 tsp table salt, or to taste
1/8 tsp black pepper, or to taste

Instructions
Preheat oven to 500ºF. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray and spread tomatoes and zucchini over sheet. Roast vegetables for 10 to 12 minutes.

Meanhwile, in a large, nonstick skillet, sauté beef, onion and garlic until beef is browned. Stir in tomato sauce and bring to a simmer.

Spread beef mixture in a large, shallow baking dish and top with roasted vegetables. Reduce oven temperature to 350ºF.

Whisk together cottage cheese, egg yolk, cheddar cheese, herbs, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Spoon over roasted vegetables and smooth with a rubber spatula.

Bake until very hot and bubbling around edges, about 35 minutes. Cut into six equal pieces and serve. (Note: If preparing casserole in advance and freezing it, make sure to thaw it completely in the refrigerator before baking it. Increase the baking time by 5 to 10 minutes.)

I tried this recipe, but had a leftover roast, so I cubed that and did everything else the same. It turned out great.

Low carbers could use full fat cottage cheese which would have fewer carbs.
