Eggs are a morning staple for me but rarely do I have the time to make an egg fresh. That is why I’ve started making egg bites. It helps me get vegetables in during breakfast and gives me a great source of protein.

First I roast two bell peppers, a sweet/yellow/white onion, half a head of garlic, and as many spicy peppers as I think I can handle (note: I thought I could handle 8 habaneros and while I can, I’m definitely cutting back next time I make these). I roasted these on a sheet pan at 350f until the onion layers started to separate from each other (cut in quarters). I then placed the roasted mix in the blender with a bundle of spinach and blended, adding olive oil as needed. I poured the veggie mix into an oversized ice cube mold (mine filled up my 4 bourbon cube tray nicely). Once solid, I removed one cube and softened it in the refrigerator. Once softened I blended the veggie cube with a dozen eggs and poured into silicon cupcake wrappers in a cupcake pan. Baked at 350f for 20-30 minutes and boom, 6 days worth of egg bites featuring spinach peppers and onion.

I opted to use silicon cupcake molds as I didn’t want paper wrappers to get soaked by the eggs and then be hard to remove. The eggs didn’t stick to the molds and they are pretty easy to use. If you are thinking of getting silicon cupcake molds I highly recommend them for baking and cooking under 400f.

The egg bites are only part of my breakfast, I’ll cover my other breakfast recipes later.
