- 0.5 medium onion
- 1 medium bell pepper
- 0.5 cup low-fat feta cheese, crumbled
- 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with a bit of olive oil.
Dice the onion and bell pepper. Halve the cherry tomatoes.
In a medium skillet over medium heat, warm 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the diced onion and bell pepper. Sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
Add baby spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, stirring occasionally, about 2 minutes. Remove the skillet from heat.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and egg whites until well combined.
Stir in the low-fat cottage cheese, sautéed vegetables, halved cherry tomatoes, crumbled feta cheese, salt, and black pepper into the egg mixture.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before slicing into squares.
Serve warm and enjoy a high-protein breakfast.
