These 4-ingredient bites are made in the microwave for easy mornings, and are part of a light yet filling breakfast that will have you feeling great all morning. Or, add a couple egg bites to salads to get an extra boost of protein at lunchtime. Egg whites provide the protein you want from eggs but are lower in calories, fat, and cholesterol.
