Egg bites are incredibly adaptable and easy to create. All you need is some crispy bacon, a bit of cheese of your choice, eggs, and seasonings to taste.

Bacon and Cheese Egg Bites

Your girl has you covered if you don’t eat pork or bacon. Try these alternatives instead of bacon:

Meaty options:

  • Turkey or beef breakfast sausages
  • Beef bacon made in the air fryer
  • Chicken deli meat, thickly sliced

Veggie options:

  • Spinach, cooked and drained
  • Broccoli steamed
  • Diced mixed peppers and onion, sautéed

Cheese options:

  • Shredded Monterey Jack with Cheddar is fantastic.
  • Smoked Gruyere cheese adds richness.
  • Shredded whole milk Mozzarella with Cheddar.

Bacon and Cheese Egg Bites

You can most certainly have only cheese and egg bites if you don’t like any of the other suggestions. I mean, sometimes you just want things to be as simple as possible. Anything else can be offered as a side.

The fact that I had seen something similar in the freezer section of the grocery store is what inspired me to make these egg bites.

The price was simply too high for something so simple, and I became upset about it. The taste won’t even compare to what you can make at home, too. So make at-home things like this because you won’t regret it!

Bacon And Cheese Egg Bites

Bacon and Cheese Egg Bites

Bacon And Cheese Egg Bites are easy, simple, and delicious.

Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes

Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs, beaten
  • ¼ cup whole milk
  • ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ¼ cup shredded sharp cheddar
  • 3 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees, and place mini muffin liners (or use silicone, or non-stick muffin tin).
  2. Air fry or bake bacon until crispy. I find 10 minutes at 375F to be the best in the air fryer. It is not to be overly crunchy and bacon is perfect for this egg bites.
  3. In a mixing bowl, mix eggs for a few minutes until eggs are well mixed. Add in milk and whip with a whisk until fluffy. Add a good pinch of salt and freshly cracked pepper.
  4. In the muffin pan, layer the shredded cheese and chopped bacon into the cups so that they are about ⅓ of the way full.
  5. Pour egg mixture into each cup, until cups are about ⅔ full.
  6. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes until egg muffins are solid. No liquid should remain. Allow to cool before popping out of pan.

Notes

If you already have precooked bacon time will decrease by 10 minutes, however, you need to cook that bacon.

if you do not have bacon, you can use smoked ham, or turkey.

Simple and Easy Recipe for Kimchi with Smoked Bacon and Eggs

Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 12 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 cup of chopped Cabbage Kimchi: the amount may vary depending on personal preference
  • 4 slices Hickory Smoked Bacon, crispy bits preferred
  • 4 large Eggs
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat a pan over medium heat and cook the bacon until crispy.
  2. Remove the bacon from the pan and set aside, leaving the bacon grease in the pan.
  3. Add the kimchi to the pan and cook until slightly softened. Add half of the crispy bacon bits to the kimchi.
  4. Crack the eggs into the pan, add a sprinkle of salt and pepper, cover turn down the temp, and gently cook to your liking. 5 minutes or until egg whites are thoroughly cooked and egg yolks look creamy inside. However, this is personal. Leave it under the lid for 4 to 5 minutes if you like its harder yolk. Turn off the stove so the eggs cook, but do not burn.

Grilled Chicken Bruschetta

Grilled Chicken Bruschetta is one of my favorite low-carb meals. However, you can serve it over salads, with potatoes, rice or even pasta and create something even more incredible.

Now that grilling season is around the corner this chicken will be in rotation around here. I love serving it with salad on the side and keeping it light, and low-carb friendly but as I said the possibilities of side dishes are endless. 

I love adding different cheeses from time to time on Grilled Chicken Bruschetta, or pico de gallo instead of these sweet and delicious tomatoes.

That said, if you wish to stay with a classic I would recommend smoked provolone cheese, and these tomatoes with just a sprinkle of Za’atar.

Adding Za’atar to chicken makes it even better. It’s one of those seasonings that can be served on anything, but when added to it, it makes it even more delicious. 

If you have a chance to make it on the grill please do but you can also make it in the oven or in the skillet.
