Eggs are a total go-to for our family for a quick, protein-packed breakfast. Not only are they incredibly versatile (if you’ve tried my cottage cheese pesto scrambled eggs or my spinach and sundried tomato cottage cheese egg bites, you know there’s so much more you can do with them than boring ol’ hard boiled), they’re super nutritious too. Yes, even the yolks! Did you know that’s where almost half of the protein is found as well as tons of vitamins and minerals, like choline, which supports cognitive function? Sign me up.

Success Tips to Make These Sheet Pan Eggs The BEST!

All you need is 4 simple ingredients (plus s & p) to make these easy and delicious meal-prep sheet pan eggs!

Don’t skip the cottage cheese! I tested this recipe four different times. Cornstarch vs. no cornstarch, cottage cheese vs. no cottage cheese, and the results were clear: cottage cheese is the secret. It makes the eggs fluffier, creamier, and far more forgiving if you slightly overbake them. I found that the version with the cottage cheese actually didn’t need the cornstarch to keep them fluffy, and I love that it keeps the recipe more simple with one less ingredient! 

High-Protein Bonus: Cottage cheese also adds an extra 4 grams of protein to each piece which helps these egg squares keep us full and satisfied longer after eating, and supports blood sugar balance for more steady energy throughout the morning! 

Add-ins: I love adding spinach to this recipe for an easy way to start the day with some iron-rich green veggies (this would actually make a great pregnancy breakfast!). Plus I love that there’s no need for the extra step of cooking it first, like you might have to if adding denser veggies like peppers or zucchini.

Description

These light and fluffy sheet pan eggs come together in under 30 minutes for 12 ready-to-go high-protein vegetarian breakfasts. Blended with cottage cheese for extra creaminess and oven-baked to perfection, they’re packed with flavor, making them perfect for an easy meal prep, grab-and-go egg bars, or in breakfast sandwiches or wraps. Guaranteed to decrease the chances of a morning hanger meltdown.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 16 eggs 
  • 2 cups cottage cheese
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • 2 cups spinach, finely chopped
  • 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350F. Lightly brush or spray an 18″ x 13″ rimmed baking sheet with oil (to help the parchment stick and prevent eggs from seeping underneath), then line with parchment paper and set aside. 
  2. To a blender, add the eggs, cottage cheese, salt and pepper. Blend until smooth.
  3. Pour the egg mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Top with spinach and cheese and stir gently to spread the toppings out evenly, submerging some of the pieces. Bake for about 20-22 minutes, or until set in the middle.
  4. Let the eggs cool slightly, about 5 minutes, then cut into 12 pieces. Enjoy as is or make into a breakfast sandwich or wrap. 

Notes

Storage: Store in an airtight container, with parchment paper separating the layer, for up to 5 days in the fridge.

 

Reheating: Reheat in the microwave in 20 second increments, or in the toaster oven. I usually do about 5 minutes on the toast setting but you could bake at 350F for 5-8 minutes as well!
