Baked Cottage Cheese Eggs

1. Preheat the Oven:
   Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare the Baking Dish:
   Grease a small baking dish (about 8×8 inches or individual ramekins) with butter or oil.
3. Mix the Ingredients:
   In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs. Add the cottage cheese, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and any dried herbs you like. Stir until the ingredients are well combined. If you’re using shredded cheese, fold it into the mixture.
4. Pour Into Baking Dish:
   Pour the egg and cottage cheese mixture into the prepared baking dish.
5. Bake:
   Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until the eggs are set and slightly golden on top. You can insert a knife or toothpick into the center to check for doneness; it should come out clean.
6. Garnish and Serve:
   Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool slightly. Garnish with fresh herbs, if desired. Serve warm.

Tips:

• For extra flavor, you can add sautéed vegetables (like spinach, mushrooms, or bell peppers) to the egg mixture before baking.
• This can be stored in the fridge for up to 2-3 days, making it a great make-ahead breakfast or meal prep option.

Enjoy your delicious and protein-packed baked cottage cheese eggs!
