Estimated from USDA data for 1 of 2 servings. Doesn't include salt to taste or anything listed “to serve”.
Method
Whisk the eggs, cottage cheese and salt together. For extra-smooth eggs, blend them for a few seconds.
Melt the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add the eggs and stir slowly with a spatula, pushing them from the edges, until softly set and creamy.
Take the pan off the heat while they still look a little wet. Top with chives and black pepper.
Tips
- Low heat is the key to soft, creamy curds.
- Small-curd cottage cheese melts in most smoothly.
- Serve on toast, or with tomatoes and avocado to keep it low-carb.
