Five dollars for 2 or $5.00 for 12 or more in the same amount of prep time as it takes to get through the drive-thru, the choice is yours with these super easy to make Egg White Bites! This quick meal prep friendly recipe is packed with protein and has endless variations so that you’ll never get bored.

The first thing you’ll need is a blender or food processor. Add right into it, 2 1/2 cups of egg whites, 1/2 cup of ricotta or cottage cheese, 1/2 cup of cheese, and 1/2 teaspoon of a seasoning which we’ll talk more about below.

Blend or process that mix for around :20-:30 seconds. Your mix should be completely smooth.

As for your cheese? Use whatever you want here! This could be a blend, cheddar, feta, and so on.

Next, you’ll need is a muffin or cupcake pan. Whatever size you want is completely up to you, I’m using one of these 24 mini spot pans (linked below). I like the convenience of the smaller egg white bites but if you want bigger ones, use a regular or jumbo pan! Silicone cups work great too.

Coat whatever you’re using with cooking spray and choose your fillings! I typically go with bacon bits or other precooked meat for more protein, chopped up bell peppers, onions, and spinach.

You can really customize these egg white bites however you want! This recipe is more of an easy and convenient idea to get some more protein in. They also taste great both hot or cold which makes them awesome for meal prepping.

Evenly distribute your egg white mix, filling each spot up almost all the way up.

After you’ve added all your ingredients in, put them into the oven on 350F/176C for around 20-30 minutes depending on the size pan you used. The bigger your egg white bites are, the longer they’ll take to cook.

Now I mentioned we’d talk about “seasonings” so here are some of my other favorite variations! Use your best judgement on the amounts, 1/4-1/2 teaspoon of seasoning should be enough.

Egg White Bites

• Mediterranean: Spinach + Crumbled Feta + Sun-dried Tomatoes + Oregano
• Denver: Deli Ham + Green Bell Peppers + Diced Onions + Sharp Cheddar + Black Pepper
• Garden Veggie: Finely Chopped Broccoli + Shredded Carrots + Garlic Powder + Parmesan
• Southwest: Chorizo or Black Beans + Pickled Jalapeños + Pepper Jack Cheese + Scallions + Taco Seasoning
• Bistro: Roasted Red Peppers + Goat Cheese + Fresh Basil + Pinch of Nutmeg
• Forager: Sautéed Mushrooms + Swiss Cheese + Fresh Thyme + Caramelized Onions

Outside of all of the variations you can make, my biggest tip for these is to make a big batch and freeze them. When you’re ready to eat them, put them in the microwave for :30-:45 seconds. If you keep them in the fridge, they should last around 3-5 days.
