Ingredients

1 lb. red potatoes diced into 1/4″ to 1/2″ size pieces
1 small yellow onion (12g) diced
1 Tbsp. olive oil (15g)
1/2 tsp. salt
5 large eggs
1 cup cottage cheese (224g)
1/2 tsp. each onion powder & garlic powder
1 cup shredded colby jack cheese (112g)
3 Tbsp. fresh chopped chives

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Add diced potatoes and onions to a baking sheet. Toss with olive oil and salt, then spread out evenly and roast for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, add the eggs, cottage cheese, onion powder, and garlic powder to a small blender or food processor. Add a tiny pinch of salt. Blend until smooth.
Grease a 12-cavity brownie pan (or muffin pan).
Once potatoes are done roasting, reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F.
Evenly distribute the roasted potatoes into each of the 12 cavities. Then evenly sprinkle with the shredded cheese and chives.
Pour egg mixture over top. Give each a gentle stir to distribute ingredients. Bake for about 18-20 minutes, until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Remove from pan and allow to cool some. Serve with ketchup or hot sauce if desired and enjoy!
