🧂 Full Ingredient List:
5 large eggs
1 cup shredded potatoes (fresh or frozen, squeezed dry)
1 tbsp olive oil (plus extra for greasing)
1/3 cup cottage cheese
1/4 tsp oregano
1/4 tsp thyme
1/4 tsp garlic powder
Salt & black pepper to taste
1/4 cup chopped green onions
1/2 cup mortadella, chopped
Optional: a dash of Tabasco or hot sauce

👩‍🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions:
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Grease muffin tray with olive oil.
Press shredded potatoes into the bottom of each muffin cup. Bake for 10–12 minutes until slightly golden.
In a bowl, whisk eggs with cottage cheese, spices, green onions, mortadella, salt, pepper, and Tabasco if using.
Pour mixture over the baked potato layer in each muffin cup.
Bake again for 15–18 minutes, until eggs are set and slightly puffed.
Let cool slightly before removing from the tray. Serve warm or refrigerate for later.

✨ Pro Tips:
Squeeze the shredded potatoes dry with a towel to get a crispier crust.
Cottage cheese adds a creamy, fluffy texture without needing milk or cream.
Let the bites cool slightly before removing — they'll hold their shape better!
