A healthy breakfast has never been more comfortable.
You say breakfast is the most important meal of the day. And you are right! I always do something to eat for breakfast. Despite its importance, breakfast can also be the most difficult food that can be prepared at home if your life is a busy madness. These hectic morning often force me to pick up something quickly in a café – a simple solution, but not the most economical or healthy. Fortunately, a bit of additional meal test efforts can change all of this!

No matter how busy you are, you probably have half an hour on a Sunday – when I prepare these egg stitches so you are ready when I’m on the way to the door during the week.
In addition to eggs, cottage cheese and vegetables, the only other ingredients you need are garlic powder, salt and pepper. Make sure you also have a muffin form – metal or silicone, your choice – and you are set!

What is cottage cheese?
Is it a solid? Is it a liquid? Well, not either – it’s cottage cheese! This power package dout is made of different milk curd, which are surrounded by a dressing from cream. A bit chunky, a little soup, it is usually made from pasteurized lean milk and rich in protein.

FAQs & tips
You will hold up to 5 days or in the freezer in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 month. Turn them up in the fridge overnight and then enjoy cold for 60 to 90 seconds or heat them in the microwave.
The great thing about these egg stitches is that they are endlessly versatile. You can easily exchange the spinach and red pepper for your favorite vegetables – or what you have in your fridge! For example, mushrooms, kale and asparagus could be delicious. I also love adding a hint of herb that I have for some additional taste at hand. My personal favorites are dill and parsley. Or you can add a dash of hot peppers or red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
If you find that your egg stitches are somewhat moist after removing the oven, several factors can be to blame. First, they may be undercooked so that they may leave them in the oven for a few additional minutes. It may also be that you have added too many vegetables that contain the small amounts of liquid that are released into the bite when cooking. In this case, make sure that you do not overfill your egg stitches and stay with the recipe specifications instead of keeping an eye on your measurements – for which I am also guilty from time to time.
