Servings 12 egg bites

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 portobello mushroom caps, diced
  • 2 cups kale, rinsed and finely chopped
  • 10 eggs
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp parsley flakes
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/3 cup cottage cheese
  • 1 cup Monterey jack cheese, shredded

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and spray your muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
  • To a skillet, melt your butter and add in your chopped mushrooms. Allow the mushrooms to cook down for about 5 minutes over medium heat.
  • While the mushrooms are cooking, make the egg mixture. In a large bowl, add your eggs, garlic powder, parsley flakes, salt, pepper, and cottage cheese.  Whisk well and  add in your shredded cheese and combine.
  • When your mushrooms are done cooking, add in your chopped kale, stir, and cover it with a lid for about 2-3 minutes.  
  • To your silicone muffin pans, add about 1-2 tablespoons of the mushroom and kale mixture to each cup.  Divide the egg mixture between each of the 12 cups. Give the eggs and veggies a quick stir in the muffin tin.
  • Bake for 23-25 minutes. Enjoy!

Notes

To Freeze: Place your cooked egg bites on a baking sheet and place it into the freezer to flash-freeze them.  Once they are completely frozen, wrap 2-3 frozen egg bites together in saran wrap well, and place them into a freezer bag.  They will last in the freezer for up to 2 months.
To Reheat:  Thaw your frozen egg bites overnight in the fridge and reheat in the microwave for 1 minute at 50% power until warmed through.  Alternatively, you can also reheat them directly from the freezer. Place your egg bites in the microwave and reheat at 50% power for 2-3 minutes until warmed through.
