I always find myself wishing I had a more filling, healthy breakfast when I’m rushing around during the week and heading into the office. I’ve seen a few trending egg bake recipes online that use cottage cheese, so I decided to give it a try with a few of my own additions. It turned out really well, and ended up being incredibly easy to make. It’s perfect for tossing a slice into a container to reheat, especially with some fruit on the side.

Ingredients

  • 12 eggs
  • 1 16oz container of cottage cheese
  • 1 red bell pepper
  • 1 yellow bell pepper
  • 1 bunch green onions
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 8-10 oz shredded cheese (I used cheddar)
  • Dash of salt & pepper
  • Dash of oregano

Directions

  1. Pre-heat oven to 350°
  2. Dice bell peppers
  3. In a big bowl, whisk together eggs, cottage cheese, bell peppers, all-purpose flour, shredded cheese, salt & pepper, and oregano
  4. Coat 9x13 baking dish with non-stick spray
  5. Pour egg mixture into baking dish
  6. Top with green onion
  7. Bake for 40 minutes and enjoy
