Prep 15 min · Cook 30 min

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Generously grease a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray.
Add the eggs, egg whites, cottage cheese, salt, and black pepper to a blender. Blend for 30 seconds until completely smooth and slightly aerated.
Divide the sautéed peppers and onions evenly among the 12 muffin cups. Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables until each cup is nearly full. Sprinkle the cheddar cheese over the top of each bite.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the egg bites are puffed and the centers are firm. Remove from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes before removing from the tin. Done when set and firm, 160°F.
