Ingredients:
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup full-fat cottage cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your preferred variety)
- 1/2 cup chopped spinach (can be fresh or frozen)
- 1/2 cup diced bell peppers (red or green)
- 1/4 cup diced onions
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/4 tsp paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp olive oil or butter (for greasing the pan)
Instructions:
Preheat the Oven:
Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and let it heat up.
Prepare the Vegetables:
If using frozen spinach, be sure to thaw it thoroughly and drain any excess moisture. Chop the spinach if needed. Dice the bell peppers and onions.
Mix the Ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until they’re well beaten. Stir in the cottage cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped spinach, diced bell peppers, and onions. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix until everything is well combined.
Prepare the Baking Dish:
Lightly grease an 8×8 inch baking dish with olive oil or butter to prevent sticking.
Bake the Dish:
Pour the egg mixture into the greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is lightly golden.
Cool and Serve:
Allow the egg bake to cool for a few minutes before slicing. It can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature. Feel free to add other low-carb vegetables or herbs to suit your taste. Enjoy your keto-friendly meal!
