Creamy Cottage Cheese Scrambled Eggs Delight

Start your day with these creamy cottage cheese scrambled eggs that are both indulgent and nourishing. This quick and easy recipe combines fluffy eggs with rich cottage cheese for a delightful breakfast experience.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/3 cup cottage cheese
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp butter
  • Pinch of garlic powder

Instructions

  1. Start by cracking the 2 eggs into a medium bowl. Whisk them together with a fork until the yolks and whites are fully combined, about 30 seconds.
  2. Add the 1/3 cup cottage cheese, 1/8 tsp salt, 1/8 tsp black pepper, and a pinch of garlic powder to the egg mixture. Stir gently to combine, ensuring the cottage cheese is evenly distributed throughout the eggs, which should take about 30 seconds.
  3. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tsp of butter. Allow the butter to melt completely, swirling the pan to coat the bottom evenly.
  4. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Allow it to sit undisturbed for about 30 seconds so that the bottom can set slightly.
  5. Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs, pushing them from the edges toward the center. Continue this for about 1-2 minutes until the eggs are mostly cooked but still slightly soft and creamy.
  6. Once the eggs are just set with a soft curd texture, remove the skillet from the heat. They will continue to cook from residual heat.
  7. Serve immediately, garnished with fresh herbs or additional seasoning if desired.
