Notes

Serving size is 2 egg bites, which nutritional info is listed for. Don't over-blend the mixture! Try out different flavours and mix-ins like cold cuts and veggies. Store the leftovers in the fridge for 5 days. Eat them cold or reheat in the microwave for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Freeze these egg bites for 2 months. Defrost in the fridge overnight then reheat as normal.
