Ingredients:
- 8 large egg whites
- 1/4 cup spinach, chopped
- 1/4 cup bell peppers, diced
- 1/4 cup mushrooms, diced
- 1/4 cup shredded cheese (optional)
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Cooking spray or oil for greasing the muffin tin
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a muffin tin with cooking spray or oil.
- Prepare the vegetables: In a skillet, sauté the spinach, bell peppers, and mushrooms over medium heat for 3-4 minutes until softened. Set aside to cool slightly.
- Whisk the egg whites: In a large bowl, whisk the egg whites with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until combined.
- Assemble the bites: Evenly divide the sautéed vegetables among the muffin tin cups. If you’re using cheese, sprinkle a little on top of the vegetables in each cup. Pour the egg whites over the vegetables, filling each muffin cup about 3/4 full.
- Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and slightly golden on top.
- Cool and serve: Allow the egg white bites to cool for a few minutes before removing them from the tin. Serve immediately or store in the fridge for up to 4 days for an easy, quick breakfast.
Enjoy your Egg White Bites warm or cold for a healthy, protein-rich snack or breakfast that you can enjoy any time of day!
