Ingredients
  

Base
  • 6 large eggs Provides structure and protein; consider using egg substitutes for a lighter option.
  • 1 cup whole milk cottage cheese Adds creaminess and protein; try low-fat cottage cheese for a healthier twist.

  • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper Adds depth to flavor; substitute with white pepper for a milder taste.
Cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated cheese Contributes richness and flavor; cheddar or mozzarella are great choices, or omit for a dairy-free version.
