Hello everyone!

Today’s post is about my recent breakfast addiction. Yum. Breakfast. The best meal of the day in my opinion. And I have a healthy, hearty “recipe” to share. I don’t really know what to call this dish but I’m going to go with this: Baked Tortilla and Eggs

This dish is fab. It’s essentially a personal-sized quiche that uses a tortilla as the crust. It is cheezy and warming but it has a ton of protein in it due to an ingredient that has been all the rage lately: cottage cheese.

I’ve been seeing cottage cheese everywhere from using it to make healthy cookie dough and “ice cream” to incorporating it into egg dishes. That’s what this recipe does. By adding a scoop of cottage cheese to the eggs, we get more protein and more cheesiness. Win win! Okay okay, I’ll tell you how to make this bad boy.

Ingredients:

• Tortilla
• 3 eggs
• Cottage cheese
• Mix ins/veggies of choice
• More cheese for topping (optional)

Steps:

1. Spray a circular glass dish with oil and set your tortilla inside.
2. Crack eggs to dish and whisk.
3. Stir in a heaped scoop of cottage cheese and any other mix ins you’d like. Season with salt n pepper.
4. Top with cheese if you’d like. I love adding shredded mexican cheese.
5. Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes or until eggs are set. Enjoy!

This recipe is seriously so easy and delicious! I love to make it when I want to level up my breakfast game on a weekend since it takes a bit to bake. It only calls for a few ingredients and minimal effort which is great for a lazy girl Sunday when I want a bougie brunch without breaking the bank. What more could you ask for?! 

Give this idea a try and leave a comment on what you think!

Xoxo,
