A quick and nourishing breakfast featuring fluffy scrambled eggs mixed with creamy cottage cheese, packed with protein for a satisfying start to your day.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup 2 percent cottage cheese
  • 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
  • Fresh ground black pepper, to taste
  • Olive oil spray

  2. Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and spray with olive oil.
  3. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet.
