Ingredients

8 large eggs
1 cup cottage cheese any kind
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper

Mix-in ideas

1/4 cup spinach chopped
1/4 cup green onion finely sliced
1/4 cup bell pepper chopped
1/4 cup bacon crumbled
1/4 cup ham chopped

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180C/350F. Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line it with silicone liners.
In a blender, combine the eggs, cottage cheese, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth.
Distribute the spinach, green onion, bell peppers, bacon, and ham evenly among the muffin cups. Pour the blended egg mixture over the mix-ins in each muffin cup, filling about 3/4 full.
Place the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 17-19 minutes or until the egg bites are set and lightly golden on top.
Allow the egg bites to cool for a few minutes before removing them from the tin. Serve warm or store for later.
