INGREDIENTS

3 large eggs

0.5 cup egg whites

0.5 cup cottage cheese

1 oz feta cheese

1 cup baby spinach

1 tsp extra virgin olive oil

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 tsp fresh chives

PREPARATION

• 1

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

• 2

  Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat.

• 3

  Add the baby spinach to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes until just wilted, then remove and set aside on a plate.

• 4

  Pour the egg and cottage cheese mixture into the same skillet, keeping the heat low to ensure a creamy texture.

• 5

  Let the eggs sit for 30 seconds, then gently fold with a spatula, moving from the edges toward the center to create soft curds.

• 6

  When the eggs are nearly set but still look moist, sprinkle in the crumbled feta cheese, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 7

  Fold one last time to incorporate the cheese, then remove from heat immediately to prevent overcooking.

• 8

  Serve the creamy eggs over the bed of wilted spinach and garnish with fresh chopped chives.
