Directions
- Sauté veggies in a medium skillet with a teaspoon of olive oil. Place in a medium-sized bowl.
- Add 1 teaspoon olive oil to skillet, add eggs, cottage cheese and stir over medium heat.
- When eggs are partially cooked, add sautéed veggies. Cook until eggs are just set. Add a pinch of salt, pepper, and desired toppings.
Cook's Note
Combining eggs with cottage cheese is a fantastic way to create a high-protein, incredibly creamy breakfast. The cottage cheese melts into the eggs as they cook, resulting in a fluffy texture without adding a noticeable or "lumpy" cheese taste.
Serve over some brown rice or in a warmed whole wheat tortilla or pita bread for a complete meal.
Try with spinach, kale, chard, peppers, peas, onion, summer squash or mushrooms.
