Ingredients:
- 6 large whole eggs (300g)
- 1 cup liquid egg whites (240ml)
- 1/2 cup low-fat cottage cheese (120g)
- 1/2 tsp salt (3g)
- 1/4 tsp black pepper (1g)

- 1/4 cup green onions, sliced (15g)
- 1 tbsp avocado oil (15ml)
Instructions:
- Add the whole eggs, egg whites, cottage cheese, salt, pepper, and garlic powder into a blender. Process on high for 30 seconds until the mixture is uniform, pale yellow, and slightly frothy.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and generously grease a 12-cup muffin tin with avocado oil.
- Divide the chopped spinach, diced red bell peppers, and shredded cheddar cheese evenly among the 12 muffin cups.
- Carefully pour the blended egg mixture over the fillings in each cup, filling them approximately 3/4 of the way to the top.

- Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before removing them with a thin knife around the edges.
