Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 large eggs (separated) Egg whites
- 1 cup Baby spinach
- 0.5 cup (halved) Cherry tomatoes
- 0.25 cup (diced) Red bell pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Onion powder
- (as needed for greasing) Olive oil spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with olive oil spray or line it with silicone muffin liners.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the egg whites until they are lightly frothy.
Add the salt, black pepper, and onion powder to the egg whites and whisk until combined.
Gently fold in the baby spinach, halved cherry tomatoes, and diced red bell pepper.
Pour the egg white mixture evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and slightly golden on top.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before carefully removing them.
Serve warm, or let cool completely and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave for 20-30 seconds before serving.
