Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 large eggs

  • 1 cup full-fat cottage cheese

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or cheese of choice)

  • ½ cup milk (or heavy cream for extra richness)

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

  • ½ teaspoon onion powder

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

  • 2 green onions, sliced (optional)

  • 1 cup baby spinach, chopped (optional)


Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish generously.

  • In a large bowl, whisk the eggs until fully blended.

  • Stir in the cottage cheese, shredded cheese, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.

  • Fold in optional add-ins like spinach and green onions if using.

  • Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.

  • Bake uncovered for 35–40 minutes, until the center is set and the top is lightly golden.

 

  • Let cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

  • Use full-fat cottage cheese for the creamiest texture.

  • Add any of your favorite veggies, meats, or cheeses to customize!

  • Don’t overbake—pull it from the oven as soon as the center is just set.

 

  • Great for meal prep: refrigerate or freeze for easy breakfasts all week.
