Achieving that light, airy texture in your egg white bites relies heavily on the folding technique used when incorporating the egg whites into your mixture. The key is to handle the egg whites gently to preserve the air bubbles that have formed during whipping. Start by adding a small amount of the whipped egg whites to your other ingredients—this helps lighten the mixture. Then, using a spatula, fold the mixture by scooping from the bottom and gently lifting it over the top. Rotate the bowl as you fold, making sure to incorporate all the ingredients without deflating the egg whites. This technique is crucial for ensuring that your egg white bites turn out fluffy and light.

Ingredients
  

8 large egg whites

1 cup spinach, chopped

1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled

1/4 cup shredded low-fat cheese (e.g., mozzarella or cheddar)

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and pepper to taste

Cooking spray or olive oil for greasing

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a muffin tin by spraying it with cooking spray or lightly greasing it with olive oil.

    Prepare the Vegetables: In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped spinach, halved cherry tomatoes, and crumbled feta cheese. Set aside.

      Whisk Egg Whites: In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites until they become slightly frothy. Add the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper to the whisked egg whites, mixing well.

        Combine Ingredients: Gently fold the vegetable and cheese mixture into the egg whites until evenly distributed.

          Pour into Muffin Tin: Using a ladle or a measuring cup, pour the egg white mixture into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cavity about 3/4 full.

            Add Shredded Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded low-fat cheese on top of each filled muffin cup for an extra cheesy goodness.

              Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and slightly golden on top.

                Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the egg bites cool for a few minutes before carefully removing them.

                  Enjoy: Serve warm or store in an airtight container in the fridge for a quick snack or breakfast on-the-go!
