Oven-Baked Egg Bites

 Ingredients:

• 1 cooked chicken sausage, crumbled (any variety)
• 2 Tbsp. cooked baby portabella mushrooms, minced

• cooking spray

Makes 6 Servings

1. Make sure to cook the sausage and mushrooms prior to making the egg bites.
2. Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Fill a baking dish with 1 inch water and place on the bottom rack of the oven. This creates a humid environment and helps cook the eggs evenly.
3. Add the eggs, cheese, cottage, cheese and dash of salt and pepper to a blender. Blend on high for 30-45 seconds until mixture is frothy.
4. Spray a 6 ct muffin tin lightly with non-stick cooking spray. Fill each evenly with the egg mixture.
5. Top with the cooked sausage and mushrooms, divided evenly between the muffin tins.
6. Place on the middle rack of the oven and bake for 30 minutes or until the center of the egg bites are set.
7. Remove from the oven and let sit for about 5 minutes. Remove each carefully with a spatula. Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
