My Slightly Strange But Go-To High Protein Breakfast - Scrambled Eggs with Cottage
Erica Wiley
My absolute favorite breakfast (like every day breakfast) is basic scrambled eggs mixed with Cottage Cheese. Weird, maybe. Delicious, creamy and nutritious…absolutely! That and it has a high protein content which I generally try to stick to within my diet for the most part.
Benefits:
1. Protein Powerhouse: Aforementioned, both eggs and cottage cheese have a high protein content.
2. Low in Calories, High in Nutrients: Eggs are rich in essential vitamins like B12, riboflavin, and selenium, while cottage cheese offers calcium, phosphorus, and vitamin B2.
3. Healthy Fats: Eggs and cottage cheese contain healthy fats (monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats).
4. Satiety (fullness): Can help you curb hunger and reduce snacking with the high protein & healthy fat content to start out the day.
6. Quick and Easy: This breakfast is a BREEZE to prepare. Take two (or how ever many eggs you want to eat), whisk, cook over Medium heat on the stovetop until 95% done, add one to two heaping Tablespoons of Cottage Cheese, mix and cook the remaining 5% til done.

What’s a food combination that some people might perceive as strange that you can’t live without?
Love and light,
