Macros are for one serving as written. Make gives you more servings of the same size; Portion resizes one serving and moves the macros with it.

Ingredients

3 eggs (150g)
80g (1/3 cup) cottage cheese, 2%
1 thick slice (45g) wholemeal bread
5g (1 tsp) butter
1/4 tsp fine salt, 1/4 tsp cracked black pepper
1 tbsp chives, finely sliced

6 ingredients, each with the gram weight the macros above were computed from.

Method

Beat the eggs with the salt until the colour is completely uniform and no ribbons of white are left.
Toast the bread and butter it while hot, then set it on the plate. Scrambled eggs wait for nothing.
Put the pan on the LOWEST heat and pour the eggs in cold, with no fat. This is the whole technique.
Stir slowly and constantly with a spatula, dragging the set edges into the centre. Expect 3-4 min of nothing happening, then a sudden thickening.
Pull the pan off the heat while the eggs still look glossy and slightly underdone - they carry on cooking in the pan.
Fold in the cottage cheese off the heat. It cools the eggs and stops them setting any further.
Pile onto the toast and finish with the chives and a lot of black pepper.

How Plus works

Tip: low heat, no fat, constant motion, off early. High heat gives you squeaky curds sitting in a puddle of water within a minute of plating.
