Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 0.25 cup whole milk
- 0.5 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 cup baby spinach, chopped
- 0.5 red bell pepper, diced
- 2 green onions, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin with olive oil or use silicone muffin cups for easy removal.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced red bell pepper and chopped green onions. Sauté for about 5 minutes until they are softened.
Stir in the chopped spinach and cook for an additional 2 minutes until wilted. Remove the skillet from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and whole milk until well combined. Season with salt and black pepper.
Fold the shredded cheddar cheese into the egg mixture, then add the sautéed vegetables. Stir until everything is evenly mixed.
Pour the mixture evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the egg bites are set and lightly golden on top.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes in the muffin tin. Use a knife to gently release the egg bites from the tin if needed.
Serve warm or let them cool completely on a wire rack before storing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
