High protein breakfast egg bites with cottage cheese — an easy Starbucks copycat recipe for meal prep, busy mornings, and a healthy breakfast!
Ingredients
- 8 whole Happy Egg Heritage eggs
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp cooking oil
- ¼ onion, diced
- 1 red bell pepper, chopped
- 5-6 oz turkey breast slices, chopped
- 6 oz spinach
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350℉. Then grease your muffin tin with cooking spray.
- In a bowl, add the eggs, cottage cheese, shredded cheese, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Whisk until smooth. For a more velvety texture, use a blender or food processor and blend under smooth. Set it aside.
- In a cooking pan, heat 1 tbsp of cooking oil over medium heat. Add onion and red bell pepper. Cook for 1-2 minute until soft. Then add chopped turkey slices and spinach. Sauté for a few minutes until spinach is just wilted. Turn off the heat and remove excess water from the veggie mix.
- Evenly distribute the veggie mixture between 12 muffin cups. Then pour the egg mixture evenly into muffin cups (about 3/4 full).
- Bake on the middle rack for about 30 minutes, or until the eggs are set. Let the egg bites cool slightly, remove, and enjoy!
