Equipment

  • 8 x 8 baking dish

Ingredients

  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 10 large eggs
  • 1 ounce feta block optional
  • salt and pepper too taste
  • chives or parsley for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and spray an 8x8 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Add cottage cheese, eggs, feta, salt, and pepper to the baking dish.
  • Bake for 25–35 minutes, or until the eggs are set in the center. I recommend pulling them when the yolks are still a bit jammy.
  • Let cool for 5 minutes, then gently scramble or break apart with a fork. Garnish with chives or parsley, if desired, and serve warm with toast, english muffin, bagel, or as part of a high-protein breakfast.
