Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).

Prepare a standard muffin tin by spraying it generously with nonstick cooking spray.
Step 3
In a blender, combine 6 egg whites, 0.5 cup of low-fat cottage cheese, 0.5 cup of reduced-fat shredded cheese, and blend until smooth. This helps to incorporate air and create a fluffier texture.

Step 5
Season with 0.25 teaspoon each of salt and black pepper, mixing well to combine all ingredients.
Step 6
Evenly distribute the egg mixture into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full.
Step 7
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until the egg bites are set and slightly golden on top.
Step 8
Allow the egg bites to cool for a few minutes in the pan, then carefully remove them using a small spatula or knife.
Step 9
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat in the microwave for about 30 seconds before serving.
