Sous Vide Egg Bites (Copycat Recipe)
Have you tried the Starbucks Sous Vide Egg bites? Well now you can make them at home!
Whisk together 10 – 12 eggs plus 1 – 1.5 cups of cottage cheese. Then pour the mixture into 125ml canning jars with a multitude of fillings and dropped into a 172ºF/77.8ºC bath with the Sous Vide attached for 90 minutes. The egg cups came out perfect!
My favorite egg bite flavor combinations:
Jalapeno + Pepperjack Cheese
- 4 eggs
- 1/2 cup pepperjack cheese, shredded
- 1/2 cup cottage cheese
- 1/4 cup Jalepeno
Bacon + Gruyere Cheese
- 4 eggs
- 1/2 cup gruyere cheese, shredded
- 1/2 cup cottage cheese
- 1/4 cup bacon, diced
Sausage + Mushrooms + Swiss Cheese
- 4 eggs
- 1/2 cup swiss cheese, shredded
- 1/2 cup cottage cheese
- 1/4 cup cooked mushrooms, chopped
- 1/4 cup cooked sausage, chopped
- 1 Tablespoon green onions, chopped
Spinach + Feta Cheese
- 4 eggs
- 1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 1/2 cup cottage cheese
- 1/4 cup spinach
You can get creative with the combinations adding almost any veggie to the mix!
Enjoy!
New Year
✨Happy New Year, friends!
✨Today we say so long to 2018, what a great year it has been. With all of the trips, wedding, honeymoon and turning 30 surrounded by all of my family and friends, it’s definitely a year we will never forget.
✨there were some incredible ups and downs in 2018, but if life has taught me anything, it’s to focus on what you’re blessed with, trust in God’s plan and work out the not so great things in life as best as you can. life is too short to spend even ten minutes of your day focusing on anything you can’t change.
✨Cheers to doing more of what makes you happy in 2019!
