Starbucks sous vide egg bites without the sous vide, the oven, or the four dollars. A microwave and a silicone muffin tray get you there in five minutes, and they keep all week.

What You Need

Serves
4
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/4 cup cottage cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese, cheddar or gruyere
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 2 tablespoons chopped chives or spinach, optional

How to Make It

  1. 1

    Whisk eggs, cottage cheese, milk, salt, and pepper in a blender or with a fork until smooth.

  2. 2

    Grease a silicone muffin tray (or 4 small ramekins). Pour egg mixture into wells until 3/4 full. Scatter cheese and chives on top.

  3. 3

    Microwave on high 2–3 minutes, checking at 2 — they'll puff dramatically and deflate when done. Let sit 60 seconds before serving. Refrigerate leftovers for up to 5 days.
