Cottage Cheese Egg Bites
Ingredients:
6 large eggs
1 cup cottage cheese
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese)
1/4 cup diced bell peppers (any color)
1/4 cup spinach, chopped
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
Cooking spray or olive oil (for greasing)
Directions:
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a muffin tin with cooking spray or olive oil.
Mix the Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and cottage cheese until well combined. Stir in the shredded cheese, diced bell peppers, chopped spinach, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Fill the Muffin Tin: Pour the egg mixture evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full.
Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the egg bites are set and slightly golden on top.
Cool and Serve: Allow the egg bites to cool for a few minutes before removing them from the tin. Serve warm or at room temperature. These are great for breakfast on the go or a protein-packed snack!
