A quick and easy breakfast of scrambled eggs mixed with creamy cottage cheese, perfect for any time of day.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 eggs
- 1/3 cup cottage cheese
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1/8 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp butter
- Pinch of garlic powder
Instructions
- Whisk Eggs and Cottage Cheese: In a bowl, crack the eggs and add cottage cheese, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Whisk together until well combined and slightly frothy.
- Heat the Pan: Place a skillet over medium heat and melt the butter, ensuring it coats the bottom of the pan.
- Cook the Mixture: Pour the egg and cottage cheese mixture into the pan. Let it sit undisturbed for a few moments to begin setting.
- Stir Gently: Use a spatula to gently stir the eggs, allowing them to cook evenly. Continue to cook until the eggs are just set but still creamy, around 2-3 minutes.
- Serve Immediately: Once cooked to your liking, remove from heat and serve warm.
Notes
For added flavor, consider mixing in diced tomatoes, chopped spinach, or herbs. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to three days.
