Are Starbucks Eggs Bites Healthy?

Let’s take a look at the main ingredients:
- Eggs
- Cheddar cheese
- Cottage cheese
- Bacon bits
- Spinach
Eggs, spinach, and bacon are natural, nutritious food sources. Each has its own list of health benefits. Combine them together, and you’ve got the start of a healthy breakfast.
But what about Cheddar cheese? What about cottage cheese? Is dairy healthy?
Here’s what we know. Dairy is full of vitamins, minerals, protein, and natural fat energy. But if everyone consumed dairy all the time, dairy farming would become abusive and unsustainable…
Let’s be mindful of our dairy intake. Buy dairy that comes from pasture-raised cows and try to eat less.
Enjoy these homemade Starbucks egg bites knowing they contain protein and nutrients and support your well-being.
Starbucks Egg Bites Tips
1. Meal Prep
These egg bites cook quickly and store well, meaning they’re great to prepare in advance. Make an extra batch or two, and store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 7 days. Or, wrap each bite individually, transfer them to a freezer-safe container, and keep them frozen for up to 2 months.
2. Make it vegetarian
For a vegetarian option, omit the bacon completely. Or, replace it with your favorite plant-based substitute. We love mushrooms in this!
3. Use different protein
Feel free to swap out the bacon with any protein source you have on hand. For example, cooked, diced chicken, chopped ham, Canadian bacon, and even turkey pieces would all work well.
4. Include different veggies
This recipe is a great way to use up any leftover vegetables you may have on hand. Try experimenting with a wide variety of options to find what you like best. For instance, mushrooms, onions, bell pepper, and tomatoes all make great additions.
5. Experiment with seasonings
We kept the seasonings simple, but anything goes with these egg bites! Mix and match different herbs and spices such as cumin, oregano, onion powder, and garlic powder to make the flavor your own.
