Pour the egg and cottage cheese mixture over the tortilla in the baking dish, ensuring it spreads evenly.
Now, add the toppings. Be creative with this step! Sprinkle diced tomatoes, diced green peppers, and chopped spinach or arugula evenly over the egg mixture. Or, use flavor option two with tomatoes, olives, red onions, and spinach. Feel free to add other ingredients like diced onions, mushrooms, or cooked bacon if desired.
