Spinach & Tomato Egg Bites
High Protein Breakfast
These spinach & tomato egg bites are a great high-protein, meal prep-friendly breakfast that’s easy and delicious. It is packed with fresh spinach, cherry tomatoes, and mozzarella. They are perfect for the grab-and-go option to simplify mornings. I started making these for my parents to meal prep their breakfast because they love eggs in the mornings. Not only did it make their mornings easier, but it also saved me from having to clean up after their daily egg scramble! These egg bites are so simple to prepare with minimal dishes - just one bowl and one pan.
Notes:
Non-Stick Pan: Definitely use a non-stick muffin or loaf pan. If you don't have one, opt for parchment paper liners, as regular paper ones will stick.
Storage: Store in an airtight container for 3-4 days in the fridge.
Reheat: A quick 30-45 second microwave zap, and they're good to go!
Water Bath: To prevent wrinkling on top of the egg bites, place a water bath under the baking pan.
