What You’ll Need:
-
¼ cup cottage cheese
-
ā tsp sea salt
-
ā tsp black pepper
-
1 tbsp oil (or butter) for the pan
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Ingredients: In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and add the cottage cheese, sea salt, and pepper. Use a fork to whisk everything together until well combined.
2. Cook the Eggs: Heat a medium skillet over medium heat and add the oil or butter. Once the pan is hot, pour the egg mixture in.
