Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 large egg whites
- 1 cup baby spinach
- 0.5 cup red bell pepper
- 0.5 cup cherry tomatoes
- 2 stalks green onions
- 0.25 cup feta cheese
- 0.25 cup fresh basil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Lightly spray a 12-cup muffin tray with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Chop the baby spinach, red bell pepper, cherry tomatoes, and green onions into small pieces and finely chop the fresh basil.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the egg whites, chopped vegetables, feta cheese, basil, salt, and black pepper.
Whisk until all ingredients are well combined.
Evenly distribute the egg white mixture among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the tops are lightly golden.
Remove the muffin tray from the oven and let the muffins cool for a few minutes before serving.
Carefully run a spatula or butter knife around the edges of each muffin to loosen them before removing them from the pan.
Serve warm or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
