Notes

Storage & Leftovers
This recipe is best enjoyed fresh because the cheese will have the best consistency.  However, you can store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to three days.  You can also prep the pizza bowls one day ahead of time and bake them when you are ready to use them.
 
Freezing
I do not recommend freezing this as the cottage cheese will get a strange consistency.
