  1. In a small non-stick frying pan over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove and let drain on kitchen paper, then chop into small pieces.
  2. In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them until the yolks and whites are fully combined. Add the cottage cheese, salt, and black pepper, and mix well to ensure a creamy texture.
  3. In the same frying pan pour in the egg mixture, using the residual oil from the bacon, swirling the pan to ensure an even layer. Cook until the edges begin to set, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Scatter the chopped bacon and grated cheddar cheese over one half of the omelette. Continue cooking until the cheese melts slightly and the omelette is mostly set, around 2 more minutes.
  5. Using a spatula, carefully fold the omelette in half, covering the filling. Cook for another minute to allow the insides to meld together.
  6. Slide the omelette onto a plate and serve immediately, garnishing with additional black pepper if desired.
