Becca's Egg Bites

High Protein Veggie Egg Bites

That time of the week where perfect fiancés meal prep their partner's breakfast for the week! (only half joking)... These egg bites are packed with protein, veggies and only take a few minutes to reheat every morning!

Ingredients

• 10 large eggs
• 130g liquid egg whites
• 1 medium onion, finely diced
• 3 large handfuls broccoli, finely chopped
• 56g grated cheddar cheese
• 1 tsp salt
• 2 tsp black pepper

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F  and lightly grease a 12 cup muffin tin.
2. Finely chop the onion and broccoli, and sauté them over a low heat until a fond forms on the pan. This will also cook out most moisture-- you don't want soggy egg bites.
3. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg whites, salt, and pepper until fully combined.
4. To the muffin tins, add the onion, broccoli, and grated cheddar.
5. Evenly divide the mixture between the 12 muffin cups.
6. Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until set in the center and lightly golden.
7. Let cool slightly before removing. Enjoy warm or store for later.
