Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients

6 large eggs
0.5 cup cottage cheese
0.25 cup shredded cheddar cheese or your favorite cheese
0.25 cup diced bell peppers
0.25 cup diced spinach or kale
0.25 teaspoon garlic powder
0.25 teaspoon black pepper
0.25 teaspoon salt
0.5 cup cooked and crumbled turkey bacon or chicken sausage optional, for extra protein

Equipment

12-cup muffin tin or silicone liners
blender
Cooking spray or grease

Method

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin generously with cooking spray or use silicone liners.
In a blender, combine eggs, cottage cheese, shredded cheddar, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Blend on medium speed for 30 seconds until completely smooth.
Divide the diced bell peppers, spinach or kale, and cooked turkey bacon (if using) evenly among the 12 muffin cups.
Pour the blended egg mixture into each muffin cup, filling about three-quarters full to allow room for rising.
Bake for 18-22 minutes, until the egg bites are set in the center and lightly golden on top. Check at 18 minutes as ovens vary.
Let cool in the tin for 3-4 minutes before removing. Enjoy warm or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
