Ingredients
  

Basic Version:

  • 2 large eggs
  • ¼ cup cottage cheese full-fat or low-fat
  • 1 tsp butter or olive oil
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ⅛ tsp black pepper
  • Optional: Chopped chives, spinach, or shredded cheese

Instructions
 

  • In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and cottage cheese until well combined.
  • Heat the butter or oil in a non-stick pan over medium-low heat.
  • Pour the egg mixture into the pan. Gently stir with a spatula, cooking slowly until the eggs are soft and fluffy.
  • Season with salt and pepper. Add optional toppings like chives or spinach, if using.
  • Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

  • Meal Prep Tip: Make a double batch and refrigerate for up to 3 days for quick breakfasts.
  • For extra creaminess, use full-fat cottage cheese.
  • Use a smaller pan (around 8 inches) for optimal fluffy texture when cooking a single serving.
