ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 1/3 cup cottage cheese (80 grams)
- salt and pepper, to taste (I usually just add pepper)
- butter or oil, for cooking
- optional toppings – fresh herbs, salsa, hot sauce…
instructions
- Make your egg mixture. In a medium-large bowl, add eggs, cottage cheese, and some salt and pepper. Whisk to combine.
- Heat up a medium non-stick skillet over low heat. Once hot, add oil or butter and let it melt/get hot, about 15-30 seconds. Pour in your egg mixture into the pan. Let sit without stirring for about 5-10 seconds and then continuously move eggs with a spatula until cottage cheese has been incorporated into the eggs and the eggs are cooked to your preference. This should take anywhere from 2-4 minutes.
