1 can V-8 juice (11.5-oz) or -tomato juice
2 eggs or equivalent egg substitute
2/3 cup water
2 cups low fat cottage cheese
1/2 cup scallions, minced

Mix together juice, eggs, water, cottage cheese, scallions and dill. Heat in microwave to 125-130 degrees using a thermometer.

Combine whole wheat flour, 5 cup of white flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. Mix the wet and dry ingredients together.
