Equipment

  • Pan or skillet
  • Spray or butter  to grease the pan
  • Whisk or fork
  • Spatula for stirring and flipping

Ingredients
  

  • 2 Large eggs
  • 1/3 cup Egg whites if you want
  • 1/4 cup Low-fat cottage cheese
  • 2 tbsp Sharp cheddar cheese grated
  • Toast if you like

Instructions
 

  • Spray a pan with cooking spray or grease it with butter, then heat it on medium-low.
  • Crack the eggs and egg whites (if you’re using them) into the pan, and whisk them together. Add some salt and pepper if you want.
  • Keep stirring until the eggs are cooked just right. Then, take the pan off the heat and stir in the cottage cheese and cheddar cheese.

Notes

  • Choose good-quality cottage cheese. Some brands are more watery than others. 
  •  Cook on medium-low heat. High heat can make your eggs stick to the pan and burn.
  • Stir frequently. This makes the eggs light and fluffy and prevents them from sticking or burning.
