Ingredients

• 6 pieces large eggs
• 4 pieces egg whites
• 0.75 cup low-fat cottage cheese
• 0.5 cup cheddar cheese (low sodium)
• 0.5 cup mozzarella cheese (low sodium)
• 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese (low sodium)
• 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon baking powder

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

Grease a 12-cup muffin tin using the unsalted butter, ensuring each cup is well-coated to prevent sticking.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and egg whites until well blended.

Step 4

Add the low-fat cottage cheese, low sodium cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan to the egg mixture, stirring until evenly combined.

Step 5

Fold in the chopped spinach.

Step 6

Sprinkle in the black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and baking powder. Mix until the seasonings are thoroughly incorporated.

Step 7

Divide the egg mixture evenly among the muffin cups, filling each one about 3/4 full.

Step 8

Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes, or until the egg bites are firm to the touch and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 9

Let the egg bites cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before removing them.

Step 10

Serve warm, or let them cool completely on a wire rack and refrigerate for up to 3 days for a quick grab-and-go breakfast or snack.
