Egg Mixture
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it reaches the right temperature while you prepare the egg mixture.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs until frothy. Stir in the cottage cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and dried parsley until everything is evenly combined.
- Prepare Baking Dish: Lightly grease a medium-sized baking dish with butter or non-stick spray to prevent sticking and ensure easy serving.
- Pour and Bake: Pour the egg and cheese mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 25–30 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and the top is lightly golden.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the egg bake from the oven and allow it to cool for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm as a delicious keto-friendly meal.
Notes
- Feel free to add low-carb vegetables like spinach, mushrooms, or bell peppers for extra flavor and nutrition.
- You can substitute cheddar with any of your favorite cheeses such as mozzarella or pepper jack.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Reheat gently in the microwave or oven to maintain the texture.
