High Protein Cottage Cheese & Egg Breakfast Bars

Servings: 9

Ingredients

  • 8 large eggs or 2 cups of liquid egg whites
  • 1 cup Cottage Cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup hemp seeds
  • 1 cup frozen peas thawed
  • 1 red bell pepper seeded and finely chopped
  • 4 green onions chopped
  • 6 slices cooked nitrate-free high-quality bacon, crumbled
  • sea salt and ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Heat your oven to 350 degrees f.
  • Line a 9x9, (an 8x8 or anything with similar capacity will work also) with parchment paper, leaving some hanging over the sides for easier removal. I very lightly sprayed the parchment with avocado oil, but this is optional.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, hemp seeds, and cheeses until combined.
  • Add in the peas, pepper, onions, and stir to combine. Season with a very small pinch of sea salt and pepper. Don't add too much salt though, the cheese and bacon already add a lot of salt. Whisk well.
  • Transfer your egg mixture to your prepared baking dish, sprinkle the top evenly with cooked crumbled bacon, then bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the center is set.
  • Allow to cool for a few minutes, then slice into squares and serve.
  • Enjoy!
