Preheat oven 350 degrees.  In medium bowl beat eggs until light and lemon colored.  Add flour, baking powder, salt, cottage cheese, jack cheese and butter and blend until smooth.  Add chilies.  Pour into well buttered 7x12 casserole pan.  Bake 1 hour or until top and center is firm.  Let stand 10 minutes.  Note:  A flatter dish (9 x 13) will cook faster.
