Quick 20-Minute High Protein Egg Casserole

Healthy breakfast, anyone? This high-protein egg casserole is an easy, family-friendly dish that starts your day off right.

Growing up, weekends in my family were all about slow mornings and hearty breakfasts. My mom would gather us in the kitchen, and we’d whip up something warm and comforting, always filled with love (and plenty of eggs)! Now, I’m creating the same tradition with my daughters—it’s a time to connect, laugh, and pass on the joy of cooking. This recipe is one of our favorites because it’s not just delicious, it’s packed with protein and comes together with minimal fuss.

Here’s what you’ll need:
- 14 large eggs
- 2 cups cottage cheese (low-fat or full-fat)
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese (optional)
- 1.5 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/2 cup loose fresh basil leaves
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp cracked black pepper

Quick steps:
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, cottage cheese, milk, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
3. Pour the mixture into the baking dish, then evenly scatter the cherry tomatoes, basil leaves, and parmesan cheese (if using) on top.
4. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the eggs are set in the middle and the casserole is lightly golden around the edges.
5. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
