SERVINGS
Ingredients
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 cup Cottage Cheese with Everything Bagel Seasoning, divided
- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese, divided
- 1/2 cup baby greens (baby spinach or baby arugula), loosely packed, optional
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh chives
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Directions
-
STEP 1
Spray a non-stick pan with cooking spray and heat over medium heat.
-
STEP 2
Whisk eggs and 1/4 cup cottage cheese together. Pour mixture into hot pan. As edges begin to set, gently push the cooked edges towards the center of the pan with a spatula and tilt the pan so that the uncooked egg runs underneath. Continue pushing the cooked edges towards the center and tilting the pan as needed to cook the eggs.
-
STEP 3
Once the omelet appears to have no uncooked liquid egg remaining on the surface, but still appears moist, add the remaining 1/4 cup cottage cheese, 2 tablespoons cheddar and baby greens (if using) to one half of the omelet. Fold the other half onto the cottage cheese half. Continue cooking 1-2 minutes, allowing the cheese to warm through and spinach to wilt slightly. Top with remaining 2 tablespoons cheddar. Remove from heat.

STEP 4
Sprinkle omelet with fresh chives and pepper.
