- 1/2 cup bell pepper diced
- 1/2 cup onion diced

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C). Place bacon on a baking sheet and bake until crispy. While bacon cooks, sauté your choice of breakfast sausage in a skillet over medium heat until browned. Drain excess grease. While the meat cooks, finely chop bell pepper, onions, spinach, and any additional veggies you’d like to use.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, cheese, seasoned salt, and black pepper. For lighter bites, substitute some egg whites.
- Once proteins (bacon and or sausage are done cooking) Crumble and distribute meats and veggies evenly in a silicon muffin pan tins. Pour the egg mixture over fillings until nearly full. Place the silicone muffin pan on a baking sheet and slide onto the middle rack to bake for 20–25 minutes until the tops are firm. Avoid overbaking to keep a creamy texture.
- Let egg bites cool for 5 minutes before removing. Enjoy warm or allow egg bites to completely cool for storage.
