Ingredients
  

8 egg whites

4 slices of cooked bacon, chopped

2 cups fresh spinach, chopped

1/2 cup diced bell peppers (red or green)

1/2 cup shredded low-fat mozzarella cheese

1/4 cup finely chopped onion

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1/4 teaspoon salt

Cooking spray or olive oil for greasing the muffin tin

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a muffin tin with cooking spray or olive oil to ensure easy removal of the muffins.

    Cook the Bacon: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy. Remove from the skillet and chop into small pieces. Set aside.

      Sauté the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and diced bell peppers. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes, or until the onion becomes translucent. Add the chopped spinach and cook until wilted, about 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

        Prepare Egg Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg whites, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. Make sure everything is well combined.

          Combine Ingredients: Stir the cooked bacon, sautéed vegetables, and shredded mozzarella cheese into the egg mixture. Mix until evenly distributed.

            Fill Muffin Tin: Pour the egg mixture evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full. This allows room for the egg whites to rise while baking.

              Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the egg muffins are set and lightly golden on top.

                Cool and Serve: Once they are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before gently running a knife around the edges and removing them. Serve warm, or store in the refrigerator and reheat throughout the week for a quick breakfast.
