Cottage Cheese and Egg Casserole
This Cottage Cheese and Egg Casserole is an easy, make-ahead breakfast loaded with protein and veggies. Customize it with your favorite add-ins!
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 8 eggs
- ¾ cup 2% cottage cheese
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 2 shallots, diced
- 1 cup frozen spinach, defrosted and drained
- ½ cup mozzarella, shredded
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375F and line a 9x9 inch dish with parchment paper (ensure all corners are covered as the eggs WILL stick).
- To the dish, add eggs, cottage cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, feta cheese, shallots and spinach. Whisk to combine.
- Top with mozzarella.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, until the center is no longer jiggly. Allow to cool before slicing into 4 equal slices (or more for a smaller portion size)!
Notes
Fresh spinach can be replaced with frozen- I would do about 2-3 handfuls, just ensure to chop it up finely before adding.
Please note if you are adding any meat you will need to ensure it is precooked prior to adding to the casserole.
