Ingredients
Scale
- 8 large eggs
- ½ cup cottage cheese
- Pinch of salt
- ½ lb ground breakfast sausage or ground pork sausage, browned and cooked through
- ½ cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F and place a 12-cup silicone muffin pan on a half sheet pan.
- In a blender, combine eggs, cottage cheese, and salt. Blend for about 10-15 seconds until smooth.
- Add approximately 1 tablespoon of the cooked sausage to each muffin cup. Pour the egg mixture into each cup, filling just below the top, and sprinkle with shredded Cheddar cheese.

Notes
For a vegetarian version, you can omit the sausage and add vegetables instead.
These Egg Bites are great for meal prep and can be reheated easily in the microwave.
