Ingredients
  

  • 4 fresh eggs
  • 1/2 cup cottage cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon butter

Instructions
 

  • Crack the fresh eggs into a large bowl.
  • Add the cottage cheese to the bowl, along with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  • Whisk the ingredients together until they are thoroughly blended and smooth.
  • Heat a nonstick pan over medium heat and melt in the butter.
  • Pour the whisked egg mixture into the pan. Use a spatula to gently push the eggs towards the center of the pan.
  • Cook and stir the eggs constantly until they are mostly set but still creamy and just a touch glossy, about 2-4 minutes. Remove from heat when they're still slightly underdone, as they'll continue cooking off the heat.
  • Transfer the eggs to a plate and serve immediately.
