Ingredients

1 16 oz carton egg whites
½ cup full fat cottage cheese I used Good Culture
½ cup shredded monterey jack cheese or mozzarella cheese
¼ cup crumbled feta cheese
⅓ cup diced jarred roasted red pepper drained and chopped, squeezed dry with a paper towel
⅓ cup spinach finely chopped
1 green onion white part only, sliced
¼ teaspoon sea salt
¼ teaspoon ground pepper

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F and line a muffin tin with silicone liners or spray a silicone muffin pan well with cooking spray.
Add egg whites, cottage cheese, shredded cheese, feta cheese, salt and pepper to a blender. Blend for 30 seconds, mixture will look smooth but it’s okay if there are still some small cheese chunks.
In a small mixing bowl combine the spinach, roasted red peppers and green onion.
Divide the veggie mixture between the 12 muffin cups then pour the egg mixture into the cups filling each cup about ¾ full.
Place the silicone muffin tray on an empty rimmed baking sheet, filling it about halfway up with boiling water. Carefully transfer the pan to the oven.
Place muffin pan on the middle rack in the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, until they are fully set.
Remove from the oven and let cool for about 5 minutes before removing the egg white bites.

Notes

Add protein: For more protein consider adding cooked and crumbled sausage, turkey bacon or ham. These pair great with all the other ingredients!
Swap the cheese: If you're looking for a different kind of cheese you could use goat cheese for its creamy texture and tangy kick, or smoked gouda for a deeper, smoky flavor.
