Preheat the oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with a bit of olive oil or line with silicone muffin liners.
In a medium non-stick pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced red bell pepper and onion, sautΓ©ing for 3-4 minutes until they soften.
Add chopped spinach and cherry tomatoes to the pan. Continue cooking for another 2 minutes, until the spinach is wilted. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together egg whites, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and baking powder until well combined and frothy.
Fold the cooked vegetables into the egg white mixture, stirring gently until evenly distributed.
Pour the mixture evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the muffins are set and lightly golden on top.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before carefully removing the muffins from the tin. Serve warm or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
