"The only recipe you'll ever need," - this was a direct quote from a very happy client after they made this for the first time.
It's simple recipes like this that are the foundation of sustained healthy eating habits. They take 15-30 minutes of effort on a chosen day & that's it!
In this recipe, you've got the perfect amount of protein, lovely gut-supporting fibre, slow-burning energy-stabilising carbohydrates, and great quality fat for satisfaction and hormone health. Did I mention it's also fabulously flavourful?
If you need to go dairy-free than omit the cheese & use 14 eggs instead of 10. You could even sub in a vegan cheese for the feta if you wish.
Preheat your oven to 190°C.
Quarter the potatoes, add to a pan with cold water & boil for 10 minutes until tender. Leave to steam dry.
Take a large heavy bottomed pan & add the sliced leeks, mushrooms, salt & pepper with a splash of water. Cover with a lid & let gently soften for 6-8 minutes stirring occasionally.
Whisk the eggs and cottage cheese to a smooth mix & break the feta into pieces.
Add the kale to the softened vegetables, re-cover with the lid & let it soften for 2 mins. Chop the potatoes & chicken into small pieces & add these to the pan. Let any excess liquid evaporate off at this stage. Add in the olive oil & stir to coat.
Pour in the egg mix, add the feta to the top, nestle in the tomatoes & bake for 18-20 minutes until puffed & golden.
Serve straight away or leave to cool, portion up & keep in the fridge for up to a week.
