Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 10 large (roughly 1 1/4 cup) Egg whites
- 0.5 cup Cottage cheese
- 0.5 cup Shredded Gruyere cheese
- 0.25 cup Diced cooked bacon (optional, omit for vegetarian)
- 0.25 cup Chopped fresh spinach
- 0.25 cup Chopped roasted red peppers
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.125 teaspoon Pepper
- 0.125 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 as needed for prep Non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Prepare a muffin tin (preferably silicone or regular greased with non-stick cooking spray) and set aside.
In a blender or food processor, combine the egg whites, cottage cheese, Gruyere cheese, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Blend until the mixture is smooth and frothy.
Pour the egg mixture evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 of the way full.
Evenly distribute the chopped spinach, roasted red peppers, and cooked bacon (if using) across the muffin cups, gently stirring to incorporate them into the egg mixture.
Place the muffin tin on the middle rack of the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the egg bites are set and slightly golden on the edges.
Remove the bites from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before carefully removing them.
Serve warm or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. These bites can also be reheated in the microwave for 20-30 seconds.
