Notes
Make sure to whisk the eggs and cottage cheese thoroughly for a smooth texture. Experiment with different cheeses and vegetables based on what you have available. To avoid sticking, ensure you grease the muffin tin well or use silicone muffin cups. If you're adding leafy greens, make sure to chop them finely so they mix well.
