Egg bites make a beautiful presentation on a Sunday brunch, or a quick bite as you're heading out the door to work. They freeze well and can be in the fridge for 3-4 days. Just toss them in the microwave for a quick reheat. Truly anything you have in the fridge can be used. Try sausage crumbles or diced ham, a dash of hot sauce, spinach, mushrooms. You decide. What's not to love about this cute little thing on your plate?

How To Make sous vide egg bites

  • From Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/p/B-muNXdjs65wptQXjjbUfdDQf8IXDQnjtAfaY40/
    1
    Steam asparagus in the IP for 1 min manual, then quick release and remove. This is the very best way I have ever found to cook asparagus, not over done or mushy. Perfect every time!
  • 2
    Fry the bacon until crisp, then chop. Slice the asparagus 1/2" on the diagonal set aside. Next slice the green onions, garlic, red bell pepper and chop all. I used shredded Monterey Jack cheese, and it was good, but next time I will try gruyere, Swiss or Jarlsberg.
  • 3
    Use a pastry brush and coconut oil to lightly oil the silicone egg bite mold.
  • Add chopped bacon and sliced asparagus.
    4
    In your egg mold, distribute evenly bacon and asparagus.
  • Whisk together eggs, cream or half and half, spices, and any other veggies you want.
    5
    Whisk together the eggs, cheese, salt, pepper, and other veggies. Pour over the top of your bacon and asparagus just to the rim of the molds.
  • Pour egg mix just to the rim. Do not cover with the silicone lid that came with your egg bite mold.
    6
    Pour 1 cup water in the IP, place the trivet on the bottom. I have a sling that I use to lower the egg bite mold into the IP. Adjust IP lid, Steam for 8 minutes. Natural Release (NR) for 10 minutes, then Quick Release (QR) and remove the lid. Let them sit for 5 min. while you make toast. Serve with some more sliced green onions for color.
