Delicious and creamy cottage cheese scrambled eggs, a quick and protein-packed breakfast option that combines fluffy eggs with the rich texture of cottage cheese for extra moisture and flavor.
Ingredients
Scale
Egg Mixture
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons low-fat cottage cheese
Instructions
- Preheat Skillet: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease the pan with oil or butter if your skillet is not a high-quality non-stick pan, as this helps prevent sticking.
- Prepare Egg Mixture: Crack 4 eggs into a bowl and add 2 tablespoons of low-fat cottage cheese. Mix gently to combine the ingredients.
- Cook Eggs: Pour the egg and cottage cheese mixture into the hot skillet. Using a heavy, preferably silicone spatula, continuously move the eggs quickly and evenly around the pan. Scrape the areas cooking faster to ensure even cooking. Continue moving and scraping the eggs as they thicken over 3-4 minutes until they reach your desired consistency.
- Serve: Transfer the cooked scrambled eggs to a plate. Season with salt, pepper, and optionally garnish with fresh herbs to add extra flavor.
Notes
- Use a non-stick skillet for best results and minimal sticking.
- Constant stirring and scraping help create creamy, fluffy eggs.
- Fresh herbs like chives, parsley, or dill complement the dish nicely.
- Adjust seasoning to taste after cooking.
- This dish can be served alone or with whole grain toast for a complete breakfast.
