Ingredients

  • 8 large eggs
  • 1 cup full fat cottage cheese
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • ¾ cup fresh spinach chopped
  • ½ red bell pepper diced
  • ½ small onion diced

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 300°F and generously spray a muffin tin with nonstick spray.
  • Add the eggs, cottage cheese, salt, and pepper to a blender. Blend on low for about 20 seconds, then another 10 seconds on medium until completely smooth.
  • Pour the egg mixture into the muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full. Evenly divide the bell pepper, onion, and spinach between the cups.
  • Give each one a quick stir so the spinach is lightly mixed in rather than sitting on top.
  • Bake for about 20 minutes, or until the centers are just set. They’ll puff up quite a bit in the oven, but don’t worry, they’ll settle back down as they cool. That’s totally normal.
  • Let them rest in the pan for about 5 minutes before removing, then transfer to cool completely.
