- 1/2 cup cottage cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh herbs (such as parsley, chives, or dill)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 4 eggs, 1/2 cup cottage cheese, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper until well combined.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, lifting the edges with a spatula to let the uncooked eggs flow underneath.
