Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- ⅓ cup cottage cheese
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Oil or butter, for cooking
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs until the yolks and egg whites have fully mixed.
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Once hot, grease it with oil, butter, or spray. Immediately pour the beaten eggs into the pan and let them cook, undisturbed, for 1 to 2 minutes. When the edges of the egg begin to look cooked, and the bottom has begun to set.
- Add the cottage cheese on top of the eggs in the pan, season with salt and pepper. Use a silicone spatula to break up the eggs and gently scramble them together, letting the mixture sit between scrambles for about 1 minute. Cook until the eggs are set to your liking, for an additional 3 to 4 minutes.
- Serve the scrambled eggs with fruit, toast, or your favorite breakfast sides.
