INGREDIENTS

2 large eggs

0.5 cup egg whites

0.5 cup low-fat cottage cheese

1 oz sharp cheddar cheese

1 cup baby spinach

1 tsp extra virgin olive oil

1 tbsp fresh chives

1 tbsp fresh parsley

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.13 tsp garlic powder

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a small oven-safe baking dish or ramekin with the olive oil.

• 2

  Place the cottage cheese in a blender and process until completely smooth and creamy to create the base for the cheesy custard.

• 3

  Add the whole eggs, egg whites, sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder to the blender and pulse until well combined and frothy.

• 4

  Roughly chop the baby spinach and place it in the bottom of the prepared baking dish.

• 5

  Pour the egg and cottage cheese mixture over the spinach, using a fork to gently stir so the greens are evenly submerged.

• 6

  Finely mince the chives and parsley, then sprinkle them over the top along with the shredded sharp cheddar cheese.

• 7

  Place the dish in the oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the center is set and the cheese has formed a golden, bubbling crust.

• 8

  Remove from the oven and let the dish rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow the texture to firm up perfectly.
