This simple scrambled eggs recipe is a tasty dish that will fill you up in no time. The most important part of this recipe is to find the finest olive oil you possibly can and to choose the best cottage cheese for the creamy texture you wish to achieve. Button mushrooms can be replaced with shiitake or portobello mushrooms for a different flavor.
Cottage cheese is definitely one of my favorite ingredients in different egg recipes. This creamy type of cheese is a rich source of proteins, B complex vitamins, and healthy fats. Furthermore, cottage cheese is loaded with calcium, magnesium, potassium, phosphorous, zinc, and selenium. Enjoy!
