Extra Protein Scrambled Eggs

1 egg

2 egg whites

portobello mushrooms

1 Tbsp cottage cheese

parsley or any herbs on hand

garlic powder

salt & pepper to taste

I always have sauteed mushroom in the fridge. I buy a huge thing of sliced portobello mushrooms at Costco, saute them in the beginning of the week, and then add them to my cooking throughout the week as I go along. I love mushrooms! Plus it saves time. I saute them in olive oil, balsamic vinegar with some salt & coarse black pepper.

For the scrambled eggs I throw the mushrooms in a frying pan with some cooking spray, while I mix up the rest of the ingredients in a sm. bowl. Once the mushrooms had some time to heat up, I add the egg mixture. Allow to the eggs to set for a few min on med. heat, don't over cook because your eggs will be dry. But the cottage cheese actually melts and is yummy.
