Ingredients

2 servings
  • 3 large eggs
  • ½ cup low fat cottage cheese
  • ½ tablespoon unsalted butter
  • Chopped chives, ground black pepper (optional for serving)

Steps

  1. Whisk together the eggs and cottage cheese until very well combined.

  2. Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the butter. As soon as it is melted, swirl to coat the pan, reduce the heat to low, and add the eggs.

  3. As soon as the edges are barely beginning to set (this will happen fairly immediately), use a rubber spatula to gently push the edges toward the center of the pan. Let cook, using the spatula to gently and continually move the set eggs toward the center and to break up big clumps, until the eggs look almost done but still be too wet to eat.

  4. Turn off the heat and continue moving the eggs using the residual heat the in pan, until they are cooked but still soft. This entire process will take 3 to 5 minutes. Enjoy warm with a sprinkle of chives and black pepper to taste.
