EGG WHITE BITES

Egg White Bites image

My husband actually calls these 'mini egg white pizzas,' because they puff up a lot in the oven, then deflate while cooling--and end up looking like little pizzas! No matter what you call them, they taste pretty good, and make for an easy grab-and-go snack! Extras may be frozen, and reheated before serving.

Ingredients

cooking spray
2 cups egg whites
⅓ cup Greek yogurt
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon onion powder
¼ teaspoon dried oregano
⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
1 cup finely chopped fresh spinach
½ cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Generously grease a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray.
Combine egg whites, Greek yogurt, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, and cayenne in a bowl; whisk until smooth and no lumps remain. Mix in red bell pepper, spinach, and Cheddar cheese.
Divide egg mixture between the 12 muffin cups, filling until almost full.
Bake in the preheated oven until egg bites puff up substantially and begin to brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Allow to cool for 5 minutes; bites will deflate substantially at this time. Run a knife around the edges and bottoms to loosen and remove from the cups. Allow to cool to room temperature.
