  • Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt 1 teaspoon butter. Pour the egg cottage cheese mixture into the skillet. Gently stir with a rubber spatula, continually scraping the cooked egg off the bottom of the pan. Cook for 3-4 minutes, until the eggs are just set but still creamy.

Notes

Avoid Excess Liquid: Be sure to drain off any excess liquid in the cottage cheese before measuring it into the bowl.
Low Heat is Key: Keep the heat low to medium and continually move the eggs in a circular motion with your silicone spatula to maintain a fluffy texture.
Whisk Thoroughly: The better you whisk, the fluffier the eggs.
Don't Overcook: Pull the eggs off the heat while they’re still soft—they’ll keep cooking on the plate.
