Ingredients

0.5
0 1/2 tbsp Margarine, 80% fat, unsalted 0.3333
0.3333 cup Cracker Crumbs, graham, plain 2.0
2 cup nonfat cottage cheese 14.0
14 oz soft tofu 1.0
1 cup fat free cream cheese 1.0
1 tbsp lime peel zest 0.5
0 1/2 tsp vanilla extract 2.0
2 each egg whites 0.5
0 1/2 cup liquid egg substitute 3.0
3 tbsp fructose sweetener 2.0
2 tbsp Flour, white, unbleached, enriched 1.0
1 cup fresh strawberries

Directions

Grease sides and bottom of a 9-inch (23cm) spring form pan with margarine. Dust with graham cracker crumbs. Refrigerate until ready to fill.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F In a food processor or blender, process cottage cheese and tofu until smooth. Add everything but the strawberries. Process for 3 minutes until very smooth and light. Pour into prepared spring form pan. Place a sheet of aluminum foil on the middle rack of the oven under the spring form pan to protect oven from any possible leakage.
Bake for 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 hours, until filling is set, slightly puffed, and golden brown on the edges. Cool on a wire rack for 45 minutes. Refrigerate until chilled, 2 hours. Remove the sides of the spring form pan. Slice into 16 portions. Whirl strawberries in a food processor to make a puree. Spoon over each serving.
