Eggs: no explanation needed!
Cottage cheese: I’ve swapped the majority of mayonnaise here for cottage cheese to increase the protein...
Mayonnaise: ...but I couldn’t leave out all of the mayonnaise (I love it). The mayonnaise here is purely for flavour though and can be left out or swapped with a bit of extra cottage cheese or a spoonful of greek yoghurt.
Sriracha: adds spice and a bit of sweetness to the recipe.
Smoked paprika: adds a bit of colour and smokiness to the recipe!
