High-Protein Egg Bites

Ingredients

• 6 large eggs
• 1/2 cup milk (or dairy-free alternative)
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 cup cooked and crumbled turkey sausage (or bacon)
• 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice)
• 1/4 cup finely chopped spinach
• 1/4 cup diced bell peppers
• 1/4 cup chopped onions (optional)
• Fresh herbs (like chives or parsley) for topping
• Avocado slices for topping
• Hot sauce or salsa for topping

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. In a large mixing bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together with the milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.
3. Add in your protein additions (sausage, cheese) and vegetable additions (spinach, peppers, onions) to the egg mixture. Stir well.
4. Grease a silicone egg bite mold or a muffin tin with cooking spray.
5. Pour the egg mixture evenly into the prepared mold or tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the egg bites are set and slightly golden on top.
7. Once done, remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before gently removing the egg bites from the mold.
8. Serve warm, garnished with your choice of toppings.
