High Protein Scrambled Eggs with Cottage CheeseSAVE THIS!

With a preparation time of just 6 minutes, this dish is perfect for those busy mornings when time is of the essence.

Why Choose High-Protein Breakfast?

Starting your day with a high-protein breakfast has numerous benefits. It helps in muscle repair and growth, keeps you feeling full longer, and stabilizes your blood sugar levels. This can ultimately lead to better focus and productivity throughout the day. Plus, it’s a delicious way to fuel your body!

Ingredients You’ll Need

For this delightful breakfast recipe, you’ll need the following ingredients:

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup of 2% cottage cheese (I recommend Good Culture for its creamy texture)
  • 1/8 teaspoon of kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Olive oil spray

Equipment Required

To prepare this dish, make sure you have the following kitchen tools:

  • A medium nonstick skillet (I prefer the one from Le Creuset for even cooking)
  • A rubber spatula (essential for achieving the perfect consistency)

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Whisk the Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the eggs, cottage cheese, kosher salt, and black pepper. Use a fork to whisk them together until well mixed.
  2. Prepare the Skillet: Heat your nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Once warm, spray it lightly with olive oil to prevent sticking.
  3. Cook the Eggs: Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. As the bottom starts to set, use your rubber spatula to gently scrape sections of eggs towards the center of the pan. This technique creates soft folds and ensures even cooking. Continue this process for about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes until the eggs are just set.
  4. Serve and Enjoy: Once cooked, remove the eggs from heat and serve immediately. Enjoy your high-protein scrambled eggs with cottage cheese!
