Cottage Cheese Egg Bites

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C)and grease a nonstick muffin tin with butter or olive oil.

Step 2

Place the eggs, cottage cheese, cheddar cheese, salt, and pepper into a blender. Blend until smooth, about 45 seconds to a minute.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix the crumbled bacon, diced roasted red bell peppers, and chopped green onions.

Step 4

Evenly distribute the bacon and vegetable mixture among the muffin cups. Pour about 1/4 cup of the egg mixture over the vegetables in each well, then evenly divide any remaining mixture among the cups. Sprinkle the top with any leftover vegetables and bacon.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 22 minutes or until the eggs are set and the tops are lightly golden.

Step 6

Allow the egg bites to cool for 5 minutes before removing them from the pan to prevent them from breaking.
