egg white breakfast bakes

This is one of my go-to high-protein breakfast preps when I want something I can just heat up and go. It’s super customizable, really filling, and takes minimal effort!i

Ingredients (makes 4 servings):

• 2 cups liquid egg whites (½ cup per serving)

• 1 cup 2% cottage cheese (I use Good Culture)

• 4 turkey sausage breakfast patties, cooked + chopped

• 2 cup shredded hash browns (thawed if frozen)

• 1 cup bell peppers, diced

• ¼ cup green onions, chopped

• 112g shredded cheese (28g per serving — I use reduced-fat)

• salt + pepper to taste

instructions:

1. preheat oven to 375°F

2. prep your mix
   In a large bowl, combine:

   • egg whites

   • cottage cheese

   • shredded hash browns

   • bell peppers

   • green onions

   • salt + pepper

3. assemble
   Grease a baking dish (8x8 or similar) OR 4 separate meal prep glass containers and pour in the egg mixture.
   Evenly distribute the chopped turkey sausage throughout.

4. top with cheese
   Sprinkle shredded cheese evenly over the top.

5. bake for 30–35 minutes if you’re using one large dish, about 25 minutes for smaller containers, or until set in the center.

6. cool + portion
   Let cool slightly, then slice into 4 equal portions and transfer into glass meal prep containers (if you did not bake them separately).

quick tips:

• If using frozen hash browns → thaw + pat dry so it doesn’t get watery

• Want more volume? Add spinach or mushrooms
