Ingredients
  

1 cup cottage cheese (preferably full-fat)

4 large eggs

1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your choice of cheese)

1/4 cup finely chopped green onions (or chives)

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon paprika

1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste)

1/4 teaspoon black pepper (or to taste)

1 tablespoon fresh parsley (for garnish)

Optional: diced bell peppers or spinach for extra veggies

Instructions
 

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish (8x8 inch works great) with non-stick spray or a light coating of olive oil.

    Mix the cottage cheese and eggs in a large mixing bowl. Use a whisk or fork to combine until well blended.

      Add the shredded cheese, green onions, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper to the mixture. If you are adding extra vegetables, fold them in gently.

        Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.

          Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the center is set.

            Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

              Slice and serve warm as a comforting breakfast, or enjoy it cold as a nutritious snack throughout the day!
