Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 1 cup sautéed mushrooms
  • 1/4 cup fresh herbs (chives, parsley, or dill)
  • 1 cup vegetables (spinach, bell peppers)
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a muffin tin.
  2. Sauté the mushrooms in olive oil over medium heat until golden and tender. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Whisk together the eggs in a bowl, then mix in the cottage cheese until creamy.
  4. Add the sautéed mushrooms and herbs into the egg mixture.
  5. Season with a sprinkle of salt and pepper.

Notes

Allow ingredients to reach room temperature for fluffier texture. Avoid over-mixing for the best muffins.
