One of my latest favourite breakfasts and snacks are these tasty egg bites that are so simple to make and honestly so yummy. I usually make a dozen or two every Sunday, and then I refrigerate them for easy re-heating and snacking throughout the week. My natural tendencies are to grab something sugary or bready for a snack, so having things like these, some cut up fruit and some veggies has really helped steer me in a different direction when I’m hungry.

Chop up the ingredients you want to add to the egg muffins. We like either ham, green onions and grated cheddar cheese or cooked & crumbled bacon, diced spinach and cheddar cheese. Put the filler ingredients into greased muffin tins – the amount is up to you. I generally fill the muffins cups about ⅓ full.

Pour beaten eggs seasoned with salt & pepper into the muffin tins (I fill them about ⅔ full; usually one egg per muffin). Stir each egg muffin a little bit to distribute the fillings.

These can be stored in the fridge for about a week and reheated in the microwave for about 30-45 seconds.
Hint: Make a couple dozen egg bites with two or three different variations to keep your breakfasts interesting throughout the week!
Substitutions
- Eggs – instead of eggs, use egg whites

Egg Bites Recipe Variations
- For a veggie-packed egg bite, add chopped spinach, diced onions and diced red peppers

Equipment
I like to use silicone muffin pans to make these easy to pop out after they’re baked.
