Moist spinach and feta egg bites — protein-packed, low-carb breakfast or snack, easy to prep and freeze.

# What You Need:

→ Vegetables

01 - 1 cup fresh spinach, finely chopped or 3/4 cup frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
02 - 2 tablespoons green onions, finely chopped (optional)

→ Dairy

03 - 2/3 cup feta cheese, crumbled
04 - 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese or cheddar cheese, shredded
05 - 1/4 cup milk, dairy or unsweetened plant-based

06 - 6 large eggs

→ Seasonings

07 - 1/4 teaspoon salt
08 - 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
09 - 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

# How-To:

01 - Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with silicone muffin liners.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until fully combined and smooth.
03 - Fold in spinach, green onions if using, crumbled feta, shredded mozzarella or cheddar, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and nutmeg. Stir to ensure even distribution.
04 - Divide the egg mixture equally among the muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
05 - Transfer muffin tin to oven and bake for 18 to 20 minutes, until egg bites are set and tops are lightly golden.
06 - Allow egg bites to cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Loosen each egg bite by running a knife around the edges and carefully lift out. Serve warm or at room temperature.
