4 large eggs Ensure they are fresh.
1/2 cup bell peppers, diced Use any color you prefer.
1/4 cup spinach, chopped Fresh spinach gives the best flavor.

Method

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a muffin tin with cooking spray or oil.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika, and whisk until well blended.
Fold in the diced bell peppers, spinach, and onion until evenly distributed.
Pour the mixture into the greased muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.

Baking

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the bites are set and lightly golden on top.
Allow to cool slightly before removing from the tin.

Serving

Serve warm or store in the refrigerator for an easy breakfast option throughout the week.

Notes

For fluffier bites, whisk the eggs thoroughly to incorporate air into the mixture. These bites are perfect for meal prep and can be customized with various vegetables and spices.
