Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cottage cheese
  • 8 large eggs
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Garlic powder, to taste
  • 2 cups spinach (shredded or chopped)
  • 1–2 Roma tomatoes (diced)
  • ½ onion (diced)
  • 4 servings of skim marble cheese (grated or cubed)
  • Everything bagel seasoning (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a baking pan.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together cottage cheese, eggs, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Fold in the spinach, tomatoes, and onion.
  3. Pour into Pan: Pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan.
  4. Top the Bake: Sprinkle the grated or cubed marble cheese over the top and add a generous sprinkle of everything bagel seasoning.
  5. Bake: Bake for 30–40 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the bake is firm in the center with a lightly golden top.
  6. Serve: Let cool slightly before slicing into 4 servings.

Optional Additions:

  • For extra protein, add cooked ham, turkey sausage, or turkey bacon to the egg mixture.
  • For a smaller, quicker version, quarter the recipe, brown the vegetables in a skillet, then pour in the egg mixture and stir gently like scrambled eggs until cooked through.

Notes

  • You can swap out vegetables based on what you have on hand or your preferences (e.g., bell peppers, zucchini, or mushrooms).
  • For added flavor, consider adding a little shredded cheese into the egg mixture.
