These Cottage Cheese Egg Bites are a delicious, protein-packed snack or breakfast option! With a creamy texture from the cottage cheese and a savory mix of veggies and cheese, they’re perfect for meal prep or a quick bite on the go.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese)
  • ¼ cup diced bell peppers (any color)
  • ¼ cup spinach, chopped
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Cooking spray or olive oil (for greasing)

Instructions

  • 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 as a protein-packed snack!

Notes

  • You can customize these egg bites with other veggies like onions, mushrooms, or zucchini.
  • For a dairy-free version, you can substitute the cottage cheese with a dairy-free alternative like silken tofu.
  • These egg bites store well in the fridge for up to 4 days and can be easily reheated in the microwave.
