Ingredients
- 4 large whole eggs
- 1/2 cup cottage cheese
- Salt
- Black pepper
- Oil or butter (for cooking)
- Optional seasonings (e.g., garlic powder)
- Chopped vegetables (optional)
- Ground beef or turkey (optional)
- Bacon bits (optional)
- Chopped chives (optional)
Step 1: Prepare the Egg Mixture
In a mixing bowl, blender, or food processor, add 4 large whole eggs and ½ cup of cottage cheese.
Season the mixture with a little salt and black pepper.
Feel free to enhance the flavor with additional seasonings like garlic powder if desired.
Mix everything together until well combined.
If you prefer a smoother texture, blend the mixture until smooth.
Step 2: Heat the Pan
Heat a stovetop pan or griddle over medium heat and add about ½ tablespoon of oil or butter.
Allow the oil or butter to melt and evenly coat the surface of the pan.
Step 3: Cook the Egg Mixture
Once the pan is heated, pour the egg and cottage cheese mixture into the pan.
Cook the eggs, stirring continuously to ensure even cooking, until they reach your desired consistency.
This should take a few minutes; be careful not to overcook them, as they can become dry.
Step 4: Add Optional Ingredients
If you’d like to add extra flavor and protein, consider incorporating optional ingredients such as cheese, chopped vegetables, ground beef or turkey, bacon bits, or chopped chives while the eggs are cooking.
Mix these in to distribute them evenly throughout the scrambled eggs.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
Once your scrambled eggs are cooked to perfection, serve them as is, or use them in a wrap or on a bagel thin to create a high-protein breakfast sandwich.
Enjoy your meal immediately!
Step 6: Storing Leftovers
If you have leftovers, simply store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
When you’re ready to enjoy them again, you can quickly reheat them in the microwave for about 30 seconds, or until heated through.
