Directions
Scramble the eggs well in a bowl Add the cottage cheese, salt, and freshly ground pepper Heat an omelet pan or nonstick frying pan on medium high heat. Add the butter and let sit until it begins to brown lightly. Pour in the egg mixture and reduce the temperature to medium. Allow the eggs to sit for around 30 seconds. Then use a spatula to begin to pull the eggs in from the outer edge of the pan. Continue to do this until the eggs are done to your liking.
I realize that the recipe may sound too simple, but for me it is wonderful comfort food. You don't have to brown the butter, but it adds an extra wonderful flavor. Be creative with additions, but I recommend nothing extra the first time. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do.
