Method

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, grated cheese, salt, pepper, and any additional seasonings. Mix until the ingredients are evenly incorporated into a creamy mixture.

  2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat it with cooking spray or a very small amount of ghee.

  3. Pour the mixture into the skillet and spread it evenly with a spatula.

  4. Cook for 4–5 minutes, allowing the bottom to become lightly golden. Gently stir or flip portions of the mixture and continue cooking for another 3–5 minutes, until the eggs are fully cooked and the cheese has melted into a creamy, slightly golden texture.

  5. Transfer to a serving plate and garnish with fresh herbs if desired.

  6. Serve immediately while hot and creamy.

Chef's Tip

Adding fresh vegetables such as spinach, tomatoes, mushrooms, or bell peppers not only increases the fiber and vitamin content but also creates a more balanced, satisfying meal. Serve with cucumber slices or a crisp green salad for a fresh Mediterranean-inspired breakfast.
