Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Cottage Cheese Scrambled Eggs
  1. Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Whisk until fully blended, then fold in cottage cheese, salt, pepper, and optional garlic powder.
  2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and add butter.
  3. Once the butter melts, pour the egg mixture into the skillet.
  4. Let the mixture sit undisturbed for about 20 seconds.
  5. Gently push the eggs from the edges toward the center using a spatula, stirring every 15-20 seconds for 2-3 minutes.

  7. Serve immediately on a plate, optionally with buttered toast or fresh herbs.
