THE #1 TIP TO MAKING THE BEST EGG WHITE BITES

First things, first! The number one trick to making the BEST egg white bites is to ensure you are doing something to prevent your egg bites from sticking to the pan. I recommend one of the following:

• Use a non-stick pan
• Spray your muffin tin with a non-stick cooking spray
• Use muffin wrappers AND spray with a non-stick spray (my personal favorite method!)
  
  
  

EGG BITES 101

Can I prepare these egg bites ahead of time?

• Yes! You can prep these ahead of time and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. To serve warm, microwave for 1 minute.

Can I use other ingredients in this recipe?

• Of course! This recipe is great to modify to your liking. Feel free to swap out any of your favorite vegetables or cheese that you have on hand.

Can I freeze the egg bites?

• Although technically you can freeze these, I find that these bites lose their great texture and taste after being put in the freezer.

Should I be eating these egg bites with anything else?

• If you are eating these as your main breakfast, I recommend pairing with an additional serving of healthy fat and/or source of fiber. Some of my favorite things to eat with these egg bites include:
  • 1-2 slices of whole grain toast topped with mashed avocado
  • Fresh fruit, such as an apple, banana, bowl of berries, etc.
  • A bed of greens for a more savory option loaded with vitamins and minerals!
