Servings: 4
WW Points: 1–2 points per serving (depending on your cottage cheese and toppings)

🧀 Ingredients

  • 1 cup fat-free or low-fat cottage cheese (high-protein brand if available)
  • 4 large eggs
  • ½ cup liquid egg whites (adds lean protein without extra fat)
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk (or skim milk)
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
  • ¼ cup chopped spinach, green onions, or bell peppers (optional mix-ins)

Optional toppings (minimal points):

  • Dash of paprika or chili flakes
  • Sprinkle of light shredded cheese (1–2 tbsp adds ~1 point)
  • Fresh herbs like parsley or chives
  • A dollop of nonfat Greek yogurt or salsa for serving

🍳 Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a blender or food processor, combine eggs, egg whites, cottage cheese, milk, and seasonings.
  3. Blend until completely smooth and airy — this makes the texture light and high in protein.
  4. Stir in any veggies or herbs you like.
  5. Pour mixture evenly into a lightly greased or sprayed muffin tin (makes about 6 muffins) or a small baking dish.
  6. Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until eggs are just set and slightly golden on top.
  7. Cool for a few minutes — they’ll puff up, then settle into a perfectly creamy, custard-like texture.

💡 Tips for Extra Protein Boost

  • Use 2% cottage cheese if you want more protein and a richer texture.
  • Stir in 1–2 tablespoons of unflavored protein powder (like whey or egg white powder) before baking — it blends seamlessly.
  • Add lean turkey bacon, chicken sausage, or diced smoked salmon for flavor + protein with minimal points.
  • Pair with a side of Greek yogurt or edamame for a full high-protein meal.
