Say Jess Please Breakfast Egg Bites

Servings 6 bites

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup water
  • 2 cups kale chopped
  • 3 whole eggs
  • 3 egg whites
  • 1/4 cup cottage cheese
  • 2 links spicy Italian chicken sausage from the meat counter (I like Whole Foods or Fresh Market)
  • 1 tsp parsley
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • non stick avocado oil spray

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees and place a baking dish that is filled with 1-2" water on the bottom rack. This will create a humid environment to help the eggs cook evenly

  2. On the stove, sautee the spicy chicken sausage (remove the casing and break up the meat so its like ground meat). Set aside.

  3. Spray a large saute pan with avocado oil. Warm the oil to medium high. Cook the garlic for 3 minutes or until it begins to brown. Add the kale and a bit of the water. Stir until the kale is wilted. Add the chicken sausage and everything together until it's evenly distributed.

  4. Bring out your blender. Add the eggs, egg whites, cottage cheese, parsley, salt and pepper and blend on high until it's light and frothy.

  5. Spray a muffin tin with a little avocado oil and fill the tins with the egg mixture. Add in spoonfuls of the kale & sausage mixture split between the 6 muffin tins.

  6. Bake for 30 minutes, or until the center of the egg bites are just set.

  7. Remove the eggs from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Enjoy!
