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.

Time 40m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 12

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.
