Description
Egg bites loaded with veggies like sweet potatoes and broccoli and topped with crispy turkey bacon. They are the ultimate on-the-go breakfast or quick snack to grab as you’re heading out the door. Make them once and enjoy them all week long!
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 Tbsp olive oil (split into thirds)
- 2 cups sweet potato, cubed (approx. 1 medium potato)
- 1 cup broccoli, chopped (approx. 1 broccoli head)
- 6 pieces turkey bacon
- 6 eggs
- 1 cup egg whites
- 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
- 1 Tbsp mixed herbs (any herb mixture works here, I used a parsley and onion blend)
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 1/3 cup cheese of choice (optional, I used Kite Hill cream cheese)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F
- In 3 separate skillets, heat 1 Tbsp olive oil in each over medium-low heat
- Add chopped sweet potatoes, chopped broccoli, and turkey bacon to separate skillets and cook until soft
- While veggies and bacon are cooking, whisk eggs, egg whites, nutritional yeast, herbs, and sea salt thoroughly
- Line a muffin tin with liners or grease each cup with olive oil
- Fill the bottom of each cup with sweet potatoes (you just want a couple cubes to cover the bottom of the cup) then add 3-4 pieces of broccoli on top
- Cut turkey bacon into thin strips and place a couple pieces on top of the broccoli
- Carefully pour the egg mixture into each cup, filling about 3/4 of the way to the top (you can use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to scoop the mixture and pour into each cup)
- Finally, top each cup with cheese, if desired (spit the 1/3 cup cheese into thirds and crumble over top of each row)
- Bake in oven for 20-24 minutes, until the edges turn a golden brown and the middle is firm
- Serve immediately or store in fridge for up to 5 days*
