High Protein Cottage Cheese Breakfast Tacos
  1. Preheat your oven or air fryer to 400°F (about 200°C). In a bowl, whisk together the low-fat cottage cheese and egg white with a fork until well combined. The mixture should be smooth and evenly mixed.

  2. On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spoon the cottage cheese mixture into two equal circles, spreading them out to form small taco bases. Season with salt, pepper, oregano, and chili flakes.

  3. Place the baking sheet in the oven or air fryer and bake for 20-35 minutes. Your tacos should look similar to this picture when finished, cooking times will vary depending on which air fryer or oven you use.

  4. Halfway through, carefully dab any excess liquid with a paper towel and use a spatula to reshape the taco bases if needed. The tacos should be crispy and golden.

  5. While the taco bases are cooling for 10 minutes, prepare your toppings. Cook the eggs to your preferred doneness and chop the chives. Spread a spoonful of pesto over each cooled taco base. Top with the cooked eggs, a handful of rocket, and chopped chives. Finish with a drizzle of sriracha for a spicy kick.

  6. Enjoy your high-protein cottage cheese breakfast tacos immediately, while they’re fresh and flavorful. These tacos are a perfect way to start your day, providing a nutritious and delicious meal that’s easy to make and satisfying to eat.
