Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 Eggs
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 0.5 cup Red bell pepper, finely diced
- 1 cup Spinach, chopped
- 2 tbsp Green onions, sliced
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.25 tsp Ground black pepper
- 1 tbsp Olive oil or cooking spray
- 0.5 cup Low-sodium cheese (optional, such as Swiss or mozzarella), shredded
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with olive oil or spray with cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and unsweetened almond milk until well combined.
Add the diced red bell pepper, chopped spinach, sliced green onions, chopped parsley, and ground black pepper to the egg mixture. Stir well to incorporate all the ingredients uniformly.
If using, stir in the low-sodium cheese until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Pour the egg mixture evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the egg bites are set and the tops are lightly golden.
Remove the tin from the oven and let the egg bites cool in the pan for a few minutes before removing them.
Serve warm, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. To reheat, microwave for 15-20 seconds.
