Similar to yogurt, cottage cheese is a really convenient source of protein that I usually keep on hand in my refrigerator. I occasionally use it as the base for breakfast bowls or use it to make frittatas and waffles. My scrambled eggs are made using cottage cheese, which is almost too easy to make but certainly worth sharing. If you’re not a fan of cottage cheese but still want to use it in your meals merely because you can’t taste it, this recipe is perfect for you.

Tips to scrambled eggs:

Pan: To make sure the eggs don’t stick, utilize a nonstick pan that has been coated with oil.

Cottage Cheese: any kind will do, but the low-fat variety from Good Culture is my own personal pick.

Cooking: Gently flip the eggs over with a rubber spatula for about 1 to 2 minutes, or until just set.

How to proceed with serving:

Present the eggs alongside fresh fruit and whole-grain bread.

To make breakfast burritos or tacos, wrap them around a tortilla.

Place the eggs inside of little potato buns to make breakfast sliders. For additional protein, add bacon or sausage for breakfast.

Add your preferred toppings to your eggs to make a breakfast bowl.

The easiest method to double your breakfast protein intake is to add cottage cheese to your scrambled eggs. Enjoy light, cheesy egg scrambles that cook in about 5 minutes instead of protein bars and smoothies.

This easy breakfast meal is grain-free, low in carbs, gluten-free, vegetarian, and keto-friendly. It will certainly satisfy any nutritional requirement.
