Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black Pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
- 0.5 cup Low-fat Cottage Cheese
- 2 slices Whole Grain Bread
- 1 small Tomato
- 0.5 cup Spinach Leaves
- 0.5 medium Avocado
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a bowl, add the milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well combined.
Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Allow to cook undisturbed for about 1 minute until eggs begin to set.
Use a spatula to gently stir the eggs, creating soft curds. Stir occasionally until mostly set but still slightly runny.
Add the cottage cheese to the eggs and fold it in gently, cooking for an additional minute until fully set.
While the eggs are cooking, toast the whole grain bread slices in a toaster until golden brown.
Slice the tomato and avocado.
Once the eggs are cooked, assemble the sandwich by placing spinach leaves on one slice of toast.
Top with scrambled eggs, tomato slices, and avocado slices.
Finish with the second slice of toasted bread, cut the sandwich in half, and serve immediately.
