Equipment

1 muffin tin
1 whisk

Ingredients

8 eggs
2 cups broccoli florets finely chopped
1 cup cheddar cheese shredded
1/2 cup cooked bacon chopped
1/4 cup whole milk
1/2 cup cottage cheese Optional for added protein
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1 bunch green onion chopped, for topping

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350℉ and grease a 12-cup muffin tin well. Use avocado oil spray, butter, or olive oil.
Cook bacon in a pan until crispy, pat dry with paper towels and then chop.
Wash and dry broccoli. Remove and discard the stems, leaving only florets. Finely chop the florets.
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs first and then add in the broccoli, cheese, bacon, milk, and salt and pepper. Mix to combine.
Fill the tray with the mixture and bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes. Garnish with chopped green onion and let cool before storing.

Notes

Each egg bite has 9 grams of protein. Approximately 1.6 Net Carbs each.

Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 4-5 days, or in the freezer for up to 4 months. Use parchment paper to separate when freezing for easier removal.

Reheat for 30 seconds in the microwave or crisp up in a frying pan or toaster oven. Use a paper towel to soak up any excess moisture.
