Cottage Cheese Egg Bites

8 large eggs

1 cup Cottage Cheese

½ cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or Swiss)

¼ cup milk (optional, for lighter texture)

½ tsp salt

¼ tsp black pepper

½ tsp garlic powder (optional)

½ tsp smoked paprika (optional)

Optional Mix-ins (choose 1–2 cups total): Diced bell peppers, Spinach (chopped), Cooked turkey bacon or ham, Mushrooms (sautéed), Green onions

Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
Lightly grease a muffin tin or use silicone egg bite molds.
In a blender, combine: eggs, Cottage Cheese, milk (if using), salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika.
Blend until smooth and frothy (this creates a fluffy texture).
Stir in shredded cheese and your chosen vegetables or meats.
Pour mixture evenly into muffin cups (about ¾ full).
Tap pan lightly to remove air bubbles.
Bake for 20–25 minutes, until set and slightly golden on top.
Let cool for 5–10 minutes before removing.
Serve warm or refrigerate for meal prep.
