Ingredients
  

6 large eggs

1/2 cup roasted red peppers, diced (jarred or homemade)

1/2 cup cream cheese, softened

1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and pepper, to taste

Fresh herbs (such as chives or parsley), chopped for garnish

Olive oil or cooking spray, for greasing

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    Prepare the Muffin Tin: Lightly grease a mini muffin tin with olive oil or cooking spray to ensure easy removal of the egg bites.

      Whisk the Eggs: In a large mixing bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them until well combined. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.

        Mix in the Cream Cheese: Add the softened cream cheese to the whisked eggs. Use a hand mixer to blend until the cream cheese is fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.

          Add the Cheeses and Peppers: Stir in the diced roasted red peppers, shredded mozzarella, and grated parmesan cheese until evenly distributed.

            Fill the Muffin Tin: Pour the egg mixture into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cavity about 3/4 full.

              Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the egg bites are set and slightly puffed. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.

                Cool and Serve: Allow the egg bites to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes, then carefully remove them using a butter knife or spoon. Garnish with chopped fresh herbs before serving.

                  Storage: If you have leftovers, allow them to cool completely, then store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave for 30 seconds before serving.
