Scrambled eggs with cottage cheese – a creamy, high-protein take on scrambled eggs.
Scrambled eggs with cottage cheese is an incredibly easy and really delicious way to cook eggs. The result is light, creamy, high-protein scrambled eggs that are healthy, filling and ready in under 10 minutes.
You simply whisk the eggs together with the cottage cheese and cook the mixture over a medium heat in a frying pan with a little oil – spray oil works well if you want to use as little fat as possible.
Let the base set before you push the egg mixture in towards the centre with a spatula. That way you get large, soft curds of scrambled egg rather than small, dry, rubbery pieces. Cook it only until it has just set, and the result will be silky and creamy, with both the eggs and the cottage cheese staying moist rather than splitting.
Serve your high-protein scrambled eggs with plenty of freshly chopped chives, a little freshly ground pepper and, ideally, a slice of good bread on the side. They are also excellent topped with crisp Parma ham, serrano ham, bacon or turkey bacon – whichever you prefer.
A high-protein breakfast or lunch
This recipe is written with breakfast in mind, but scrambled eggs with cottage cheese work at least as well as a quick lunch. For a more filling meal, add an extra egg per person and a couple of extra tablespoons of cottage cheese – and serve with wholegrain bread or a fresh salad. That gives you a simple, healthy and genuinely high-protein meal that suits the start of the day just as well as an easy lunch.

Warm wishes, Dianna
Genial ide, den må prøves.
Jeg har kastet mig over din app, dine bøger og også her på siden.
Jeg er kæmpe fan
På lige denne opskrift her, har du næringsindhold med, hvilket jeg virkelig sætter stor pris på Men hvorfor har samme opskrift på appen ikke denne udregning?
Ville være verdensklasse når man kan samle favoritter i appen
Hej Heidi
Det skal du gøre, det er simpelthen så lækkert – jeg er vildt begejstret 🙂 Hytteosten smelter lidt, så du får bare den lækreste cremede konsistens 🙂
Og hvor er det dejligt du er glad for både app, hjemmeside og bøger – og det er dejligt du skriver det:)
Jeg er ved at få kalorie indhold implementeret på appen også, udviklerne er sat på sagen, og jeg glæder mig til jeg kan tilbyde det 🙂
Jeg har på hjemmesiden kalorieindhold på de seneste 200 opskrifter, men er i gang med arbejde mig igennem dem alle, så der på et tidspunkt er kalorieindhold på alle opskrifterne 🙂
Så hold øje med appen, jeg lover at det kommer på et tidspunkt 🙂
Warm wishes, Dianna
