What’s in These Egg Bites?

Eggs: I use large eggs for this recipe. Liquid eggs or egg whines can be used in place.
Cottage cheese: This is the secret to the fluffy creamy texture.
Cheese: I use cheddar but swap in Monterey Jack, Gruyere, Swiss, or your favorite blend.
Bacon: Use crumbled bacon or bacon bits. Swap it for diced ham or cooked breakfast sausage.
Vegetables: Red bell peppers add a pop of color and lots of flavor to egg bites. You can add other vegetables, but be sure they’re cooked to keep the egg bites from getting watery.
