Directions:

Dissolve yeast in warm water. Combine cottage cheese, butter, onions, seasonings and sugar in a large mixing bowl. (Set bowl in a sinkful of hot tap water to warm before using).

Add yeast, egg, soda and 1 cup flour to warm mixture and beat vigorously. Gradually add flour to make a soft dough. Scrape down sides of bowl, cover and let rise in a warm place until double, about 1 hour.

Bake in a 350 degree oven for 40 to 50 minutes.

Turn out on serving plate and serve in slices while hot.

Good with Chili or Beef Stew.
