Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup grated zucchini, excess moisture squeezed out
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a mini muffin tin with cooking spray.

- In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until well combined.
- Add the sautéed onion and garlic, grated zucchini, crumbled feta, salt, pepper, and oregano to the eggs. Stir gently to combine.

- Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the egg bites are set and lightly golden on top.
- Allow to cool for a few minutes before removing from the muffin tin. Serve warm or store for later.
Notes
For added flavor, sprinkle chopped fresh herbs like dill or parsley on top before baking, or serve with a side of tzatziki sauce for a Mediterranean twist.
