Description
A creamy, protein-packed breakfast dish made with eggs and cottage cheese, perfect for meal prep and easy portioning.
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup (240 g) cottage cheese
- 1/4 cup milk (or water for fewer calories)
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 cup chopped spinach (or other add-ins)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease an 8×8-inch baking dish or 4 ramekins.
- In a bowl, whisk eggs, cottage cheese, milk, salt, and pepper until combined; blend briefly for smoothness if desired.
- Stir in spinach or any other chosen add-ins.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared dish or ramekins.
- Bake for 22–28 minutes until the center is just set, and a knife inserted comes out clean.
- Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
Use full-fat cottage cheese for creaminess. If using watery add-ins, squeeze out excess moisture before mixing.
