Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  2. Prep the ingredients: Use the large side of a cheese grater to grate the sweet potato into fine shreds (remove the shreds of the potato peel if you’d like). Use a vegetable chopper (or knife) to finely dice the onions and bell pepper.
  3. Add the eggs, egg whites, dijon mustard, and cottage cheese to a blender. Blend for 20-30 seconds until it’s completely combined.
  4. Pour the egg mixture into a mixing bowl and fold in grated sweet potato, onion, peppers, and seasonings. Stir.
  5. Heavily grease a 12-count muffin tin. You may also use these silicon liners.
  6. Use a medium size cookie scoop and pour 2 scoops into each greased muffin tin. These will not rise much, but try to fill them just under the top line.
  7. Top each egg white muffin with a sprinkle pepper jack of cheese.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until set in the center.
  9. Serve hot. Enjoy!
