Equipment

muffin tin

Ingredients

500 g -container of liquid egg whites (2 cups or 15 egg whites)
⅓ cup dry curd cottage cheese (Farmer's cheese)
¾ cup Monterey jack cheese shredded
¾ cup light feta cheese
⅓ cup fat-free parmesan cheese
⅓ cup roasted red peppers diced *I use jarred (Mezzetta brand)
⅓ cup frozen spinach (3 nuggets) defrosted, with liquid squeezed out and finely chopped
3 green onions chopped
¼ teaspoon salt

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (176 degrees C) and generously coat a muffin tin with cooking spray. *It is VERY IMPORTANT to spray a generous amount of cooking spray in the muffin cups to prevent sticking
Add egg whites, dry cottage cheese, parmesan cheese, jack cheese, feta cheese and salt together in blender.
Blend for 1 minute on high.
Chop the roasted red pepper, spinach and onions. Mix into the blended ingredients with a spoon, but do NOT turn on the blender and blend anymore!
Fill muffin cups ¾ full with egg mixture, Try to evenly distribute the peppers, spinach and onion.
Bake for 25-30 minutes in preheated oven until lightly browned, with an internal temperature of 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
Let cool for about 5 minutes before removing from the mold and enjoy warm! (they puff up while baking, but they will deflate a little- this is normal)

Garnish

Garnish with additional green onions and serve with salsa, if desired.

Notes

*Your egg bites will look a little lighter (less green) than in the photos, as I tested and tweaked the recipe for taste, yet another time, and reduced the amount of spinach, after I took the photos! :)
