Add one ingredient to scrambled eggs to make them 'warm and comforting'

Scrambled eggs make for a great breakfast when they're done correctly. Perfectly rich and creamy scrambled eggs layered onto a slice of crispy toast is a really comforting morning meal during the colder months.

However, they can be hard to get exactly right, as the creamy texture can quickly turn into a watery mess. While everyone has their own methods for cooking the perfect scrambled eggs, one less common ingredient could be just what you're looking for. A user on Reddit shared the tip, claiming it helps to achieve "warm and comforting" scrambled eggs.

The user, safe_food, said, "Scrambled eggs and cottage cheese, warm and comforting." The post has received dozens of comments, with some people approving of the use of cottage cheese to transform scrambled eggs.

A few tablespoons of cottage cheese help to create a perfect light and fluffy texture. It also adds a rich and creamy taste to scrambled eggs.

The curds melt into the mixture ,which helps to keep the eggs smooth. The added dairy also ensure the scrambled eggs do not turn rubbery and bland.

The addition of cottage cheese packs scrambled eggs with more protein as well as healthy natural fats. This makes the dish even more filling and satisfying.

A pot of cottage cheese is packed with calcium and phosphorus. It is also high in Vitamin B12, which is important for nerve function.

A second Reddit user agreed: "Two eggs and 50g cottage cheese, scrambled together with salt and pepper. An easy, safe dish that always hits the spot!"

A third wrote: "I second this! I eat scrambled eggs and cottage cheese on toast often. Great way to get protein without feeling bogged down."

A fourth put: "SO GOOD," while a fifth said: " Mmm defo trying this for breakfast tomorrow!" The original poster replied: "It's so good! The cottage cheese gets all melty."
