Fiesta Egg Bites are sponsored by Hunt’s. All opinions are 100% mine.#HuntsDifference  My family went crazy over these easy little egg bites! They come together fast and are packed with great flavors. This meatless meal is great for any time of the day and packed with protein.

I love using Hunt’s Petite Diced tomatoes in this recipe because not only do they taste great, but it means less prep work for me! I try and keep a variety of Hunt’s tomatoes in my pantry. If you haven’t used these Petite Diced, stock up next time you’re at the store. They come in handy for recipes like this where the vegetables are best if smaller in size. Hunt’s prepares their tomatoes differently than other brands and you can taste the difference. Tomatoes are vine ripened and are canned within hours of being picked. Their tomatoes are peeled using steam- no chemicals involved. All this helps their canned tomatoes to be sweet, flavorful and ready to be made into breakfast… or dinner!

Short Cuts for Making Egg Bites

1. There are several ways you can make these Fiesta Egg Bites quicker. Here are some ideas:
2. Chop up the peppers and onions ahead of time and freeze in bags. Scoop out the amount you need for this recipe!
3. Use Egg Beaters in place of regular eggs or egg whites. It’s not only faster but healthier too. You’ll need 1 3/4 cups of Egg Beaters for this recipe.
4. Make the entire egg bites recipe ahead of time and freeze 4 egg bites in a small bag. Pull each bag out as needed, microwaving the egg bites for 1-2 minutes when you’re ready to eat.

Fiesta Egg Bites Recipe

• 1/2 cup Hunt’s Petite Diced Tomatoes (from a 14.5 oz can)
• 1 TBSP butter
• 1/2 cup diced sweet peppers
• 1/4 cup diced yellow onion
• 2 tsp taco seasoning
• 7 large eggs
• 2 TBSP milk
• 1 cup grated cheddar or taco blend cheese

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a mini muffin tin with Pam Baking Spray.
2. Pour half the can of diced tomatoes into a strainer and let sit to remove liquid.
3. Place butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Melt, then add peppers and onion and cook for 7-8 minutes, until soft. Stir in taco seasoning and set aside.
4. While peppers are cooking, whisk together eggs and milk thoroughly. Add in half the grated cheese and whisk again.
5. Spoon a small amount of peppers into each muffin cup. (About 1/2 teaspoon)
6. Measure out 1/2 cup cup tomatoes from the drained portion. Spoon a small amount of diced tomatoes into each muffin cup. (about 1 teaspoon)
7. Whisk egg mixture once more, then pour until each muffin cup, filling it nearly full. Top each muffin cup with remaining cheese.
8. Bake for 17-20 minutes, until egg bites are puffed up. Remove from heat. Let cool 5 minutes, then remove each egg bite from the muffin tin, using a slim knife run around the edges, if needed.
9. Enjoy! Store leftovers in an airtight container. Egg Bites can be frozen and reheated later on.
