  • 4 large Eggs

Preparation
  1. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, cottage cheese, salt, and black pepper.
Cooking
  1. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and spray with oil.
  2. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and reduce the heat to low.
  3. Stir continuously with a silicone spatula, keeping the eggs moving until soft and just beginning to set, about 2 minutes.

  5. Season with extra salt and pepper if desired and serve.

Notes

Serve these creamy scrambled eggs with a slice of toasted sourdough for added crunch. Add sautéed vegetables or hot sauce for extra flavor.
