Sizzling Veggie & Feta Egg Bites Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin pan.

   
   

2. Sauté the vegetables: Add the onion and yellow bell pepper to a skillet over medium heat. Cook for 3–4 minutes until they begin to soften. Add the spinach and cook until wilted. Remove from the heat.

   
   

3. Whisk the eggs: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Add hot sauce or red pepper flakes if using.

   
   

4. Build the egg bites: Divide the cooked vegetables and diced tomatoes evenly among the muffin cups. Sprinkle with feta.

   
   

5. Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables, filling each cup about 3/4 full.

   
   

6. Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the eggs are set in the center and lightly golden around the edges.

   
   

7. Let them cool for a few minutes before removing from the pan.

   
   

Pro tip: Don't overfill the muffin cups. The eggs puff up while baking and then settle as they cool.
