Ingredients
Scale:
4 large eggs (separated)
1 cup cottage cheese (preferably low-fat or full-fat for creaminess)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
1/2 teaspoon onion powder (optional)
1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your favorite blend)
Chopped fresh herbs (like chives or parsley, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a baking dish (approximately 8x8 inches) with cooking spray or butter.
In a large mixing bowl, separate the egg whites from the yolks. Beat the egg whites on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form.
In another bowl, combine the egg yolks, cottage cheese, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until smooth.
Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the cottage cheese mixture.
Spoon the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the top.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and p￭.
