High-Protein Scrambled Eggs

Print Recipe

A nutritious and satisfying high-protein scrambled eggs recipe, perfect for a healthy breakfast or post-workout meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 egg whites
  • 1/4 cup low-fat milk or water
  • 1/4 cup cottage cheese or Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup shredded low-fat cheese (optional)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 tsp olive oil or cooking spray
  • Fresh herbs (e.g., chives or parsley), for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, whisk together the whole eggs, egg whites, milk (or water), cottage cheese (or Greek yogurt), salt, and pepper until well combined.
  2. Heat olive oil or spray a non-stick skillet with cooking spray over medium heat.
  3. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let it sit for a few seconds without stirring.
  4. Using a spatula, gently stir and fold the eggs from the edges to the center until softly scrambled and cooked through but still moist.
  5. If using, sprinkle shredded cheese over the eggs and stir gently to combine.
  6. Remove from heat and garnish with fresh herbs, if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use Greek yogurt instead of cottage cheese for a tangier flavor and even more protein.
  • Add cooked spinach, diced tomatoes, or sautéed mushrooms for extra nutrients.
  • Serve with whole-grain toast or avocado for a balanced meal.
