Equipment
- Mixing bowl
- whisk
- Medium pan
- Spatula
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- ¼ cup cottage cheese, skim
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the eggs, cottage cheese, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Whisk the mixture together until well blended.
- Heat a non-stick frying pan or skillet over medium heat. Once the pan is hot, add the egg mixture to the pan.
- Using a spatula or wooden spoon, gently scrape the sides of the pan as the eggs begin to cook. Continue stirring and scraping the sides intermittently to ensure even cooking and prevent sticking.
- Cook the scrambled eggs until they reach your desired level of doneness, typically around 2-3 minutes. Remove the pan from heat and transfer the scrambled eggs to a serving plate or bowl.
- Serve the scrambled eggs with cottage cheese while still hot, and enjoy the creamy and flavorful dish as a satisfying breakfast or brunch option!
Notes
Feel free to adjust the amount of cottage cheese according to your preference. Add more for a richer and creamier texture or reduce it if you prefer a milder flavor.
Don't overcook the eggs as they can become dry. It's best to remove them from the heat while they are still slightly runny as they will continue to cook from the residual heat.
