Description

These Veggie Egg Bites are a delicious and healthy breakfast option packed with fresh vegetables and cheese. Perfect for meal prep, they are easy to make, versatile, and can be served warm or cold. Baked to a light golden finish, these egg bites are a satisfying and protein-rich start to your day.

Ingredients

Egg Mixture

  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Vegetables & Cheese

  • 1/4 cup diced red bell pepper
  • 1/4 cup chopped spinach
  • 1/4 cup diced onion
  • 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Other

  • Nonstick cooking spray or oil for greasing muffin tin

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray or oil to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Eggs and Milk: In a medium bowl, vigorously whisk together the 6 eggs and 1/4 cup milk until fully combined and slightly frothy, ensuring a uniform texture for the egg bites.
  3. Add Vegetables, Cheese, and Seasoning: Fold in the diced red bell pepper, chopped spinach, diced onion, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well so all ingredients are evenly distributed throughout the egg mixture.
  4. Fill Muffin Tin: Pour the egg mixture evenly into each muffin cup, filling them about 3/4 full to allow room for expansion while baking.
  5. Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18 to 22 minutes, or until the egg bites are fully set and the tops are lightly golden brown.
  6. Cool and Serve: Remove the tin from the oven and let the egg bites cool for a few minutes before carefully removing them. Serve warm immediately or let them cool completely for refrigeration or freezing.

Notes

  • You can customize the veggies based on your preference—mushrooms, zucchini, or tomatoes are great alternatives or additions.
  • These egg bites store well in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
  • They can also be frozen for up to 2 months, making them perfect for meal prepping.
  • Reheat individual egg bites in the microwave for a quick and convenient breakfast.
