High Protein Egg Bites (Easy Meal Prep)
If you’re looking for a simple, high-protein breakfast that keeps you full, these egg bites are one of the easiest recipes you can make. They come together in just a few minutes and bake into perfectly portioned bites that are great for meal prep.
Made with eggs, cottage cheese, and shredded cheese, these egg bites are rich in protein and healthy fats while staying very low in carbohydrates. A small amount of green onions, spinach, or peppers adds flavor without adding many carbs, making them a great option for anyone focusing on balanced portions or a lower-carb approach.
One batch makes 12 egg bites, and they store well in the refrigerator for several days, making them perfect for quick breakfasts or an easy protein option during a busy week. Simply reheat a few in the microwave and you have a satisfying meal in minutes.
For those tracking portions, three egg bites provide about 18 grams of protein and 12 grams of fat, making them a convenient protein-focused serving that fits well into many structured meal plans.
