Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Prepare a muffin tin by lightly spraying it with olive oil spray.
Chop the red bell pepper and spinach leaves into small pieces and set aside.
In a blender, combine the egg whites, cottage cheese, Gruyère cheese, salt, and black pepper. Blend on high until the mixture is smooth.
Pour the egg mixture evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full.
Evenly distribute the chopped red bell pepper and spinach into each cup, gently pressing them into the egg mixture.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the egg white bites are set and lightly golden on top.
Allow the egg bites to cool for a couple of minutes before gently removing them from the tin.
Serve warm or let them cool completely and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat as needed.
