Ingredients

• 12 large eggs worth (approximately 1.5 cups) Egg whites
• 0.5 cups Cottage cheese (low-fat or full-fat)
• 0.5 cups Shredded Gruyere cheese
• 0.25 cups Shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons Unsweetened almond milk
• 2 slices Cooked bacon, finely chopped (optional for non-vegetarian)
• 0.25 cups Baby spinach, chopped
• 2 stalks Green onions, finely sliced
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a muffin tin by lightly greasing each cup with cooking spray or brushing with oil.

Step 2

In a blender, combine the egg whites, cottage cheese, shredded Gruyere cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, almond milk, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth and frothy, about 30 seconds.

Step 3

If using optional bacon, cook the bacon until crisp, then chop it into small pieces. Set aside.

Step 4

Distribute the chopped spinach, green onions, and optional bacon evenly across the prepared muffin cups.

Step 5

Pour the egg white mixture into each muffin tin, filling about 3/4 of the way to allow room for expansion while baking.

Step 6

Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the egg bites are set and lightly golden on top.

Step 7

Remove the egg bites from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes before carefully removing them from the muffin tin using a spoon or spatula.

Step 8

Serve warm, or let the egg bites cool completely before storing in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave for 30-60 seconds before enjoying.
