In a frying pan over medium heat, melt butter. Add mushrooms and green onions and sautee until tender. Stir in cracker crumbs. Turn mixture into an oiled eightinchpie pan . Spread mixture evenly over bottom and sides of pan using a spatula, creating a 1/4 inch raised crust around edges of pie pan.
Sprinkle crust evenly with shredded cheese. In a food processor, whirl cottage cheese, eggs and cayenne pepper until smooth. Pour into crust and sprinkle with paprika.
Bake for 45-50 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean. Let stand 10 minutes before cutting.
