Possible recipe variations and tips
- Use any veggies you like. You can mix up the veggies and use steamed broccoli, sautéed peppers, and onions (let them cool first), sautéed kale, roasted butternut squash, or cooked mushrooms.
- Switch up the cheese in this recipe. I used feta cheese but goat cheese, mozzarella cheese or cheddar cheese would all work as well.
- Add in some more protein. Cooked crumbled sausage or bacon would be great additions if you do not need to keep this recipe vegetarian.
- Make sure to spray the muffin cups with cooking spray before you fill them so that the egg white bites do not stick to the pan.
- To store these egg white bites, let them cool completely, place them into an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave on high for 30-60 seconds.
- To ensure these do not stick to the pan, make sure you coat the pan really well first. Also, let them cool completely and run a butter knife around the edge of the pan to easily loosen them and pull them out.

Great veggie snack!
Added mushrooms and peppers. Delicious, thanks for sharing.
What happens if you use the entire egg? is that recommended?
i’m asking because i’m wondering what to do with the egg leftover??
Hi Alexandra, you can make scrambled eggs with the yolks or save them for another recipe. You could also buy carton egg whites in most grocery stores and use those. I will add this information to the recipe notes. Thank you so much!
Can you freeze these? If so, for how long?
Hi Crystal, I did try to freeze them with little success. You can make them and store them in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 4 days and easily reheat when ready to eat!
Love and was a hit with the whole family!
