INGREDIENTS

3 large eggs

0.5 cup egg whites

0.25 cup low-fat cottage cheese

2 slices center-cut bacon

1 cup baby spinach

1 tsp ghee

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 tbsp fresh chives

PREPARATION

• 1

  Place the center-cut bacon in a cold skillet and turn the heat to medium; cook until crisp and golden, then transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.

• 2

  In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg whites, cottage cheese, sea salt, and black pepper until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.

• 3

  Wipe the skillet clean and melt the ghee over medium-low heat.

• 4

  Add the baby spinach to the skillet and sauté for about 1 minute until just wilted.

• 5

  Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, allowing it to sit for 30 seconds to set the bottom.

• 6

  Using a silicone spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges toward the center to create soft, creamy curds.

• 7

  Continue cooking over low heat until the eggs are just set but still moist, then remove from heat immediately.

• 8

  Serve the creamy eggs topped with freshly chopped chives alongside the crispy bacon strips.
