Directions:
Directions:
In a (very) large bowl, beat the eggs and cream cheese together. Add the flour, add baking soda, beat. Stir in the cottage cheese, add the mozzarella and feta (to taste).
Melt a stick of butter.
Spray a 9X13 pan with cooking spray
Sprinkle melted butter in the bottom of the pan on top of the cooking spray.
Place 3 sheets of phyllo dough on the bottom of the pan.
Sprinkle the cheese and egg mixture on top of the phyllo dough - does not have to fully cover the area, you have lot of layers for that. Then place phyllo dough on top of the mixture, sprinkle melted butter on that sheet, and sprinkle the cheese mixture again. Repeat this process until the pan is full, or until you have only 3 sheets of phyllo dough left. Place these three sheets on top of the completed gibanica, sprinkle it with butter, and you are done.
Bake at 325 degrees for 90 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
