This is the easiest high-protein breakfast you’ll make all week. Get a pan hot with a little olive oil, then cut circles out of your bread. A wine glass works perfectly.

Toast the bread, crack an egg right into the hole, season with salt and pepper, and flip. Plate it up with a scoop of cottage cheese and a side of guac for some healthy fat. That’s it. Five minutes, one pan, and a breakfast that’ll actually keep you full.
