- 1 tablespoon olive oil or cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
Apply olive oil or cooking spray to a 12-cup muffin tin to prevent sticking.
Step 3
In a medium-sized skillet, add a small amount of olive oil over medium heat.
Step 4
Add fresh spinach to the skillet and sauté until wilted, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Step 5
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg whites, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Step 6
Chop the sautéed spinach and add it to the egg white mixture.
Step 7
Stir in cheddar cheese, cream cheese, and chopped green onions until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
Step 8
Spoon the mixture evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
Step 9
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the egg white bites are set and lightly golden on top.
Step 10
Remove from the oven and let them cool in the muffin tin for a few minutes before carefully removing the bites.
Step 11
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
