Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 large, from 12 eggs egg whites
- 1 cup fresh baby spinach, chopped
- 0.5 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered
- 0.5 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 tablespoons green onions, sliced
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- as needed nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray to ensure easy release of the egg bites.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg whites, salt, and black pepper until frothy.
Add the chopped spinach, quartered cherry tomatoes, shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan, and sliced green onions into the bowl with the egg whites.
Gently fold the mixture until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
Pour the egg white mixture evenly into the prepared muffin tins, filling each cup to about 3/4 full.
Place the muffin tin on the middle rack of the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the tops are lightly golden.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and allow the egg bites to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before gently removing them with a butter knife or spatula.
Serve warm, or allow to cool completely before storing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave when ready to serve.
