If you haven't been struck by the Sous Vide Egg Bites bug yet, then you don't know what you're missing! My first experience with egg bites was at none other than Starbucks after hearing all the hoopla surrounding them. And let me just say, they did not disappoint. They're soft and fluffy and full of yummy little bits of flavor bomb awesomeness.

Being as they were a little costly though, I thought I could do myself a service and find a way to make them for myself at home; allowing me to change up the flavors and save me a few dollars along the way.

To be completely honest, I have to say that these are actually way better than the ones you can buy. They're even soft, more fluffy, and probably double the size. One of the best parts is that they are incredibly easy to make and last for about a week in the fridge, making them perfect for a once a week meal prep. 

So what is 'sous vide' anyway? Well, it's basically a cooking technique where you place something to cook in a container of some sort and set in or around hot water. So, you end up basically steaming to cook while locking in all the flavors and moisture. I hear that it's an excellent way to cook meat, especially poultry!

I've said it before, and I'll say it again; I love my electric pressure cooker. It has the ability to do the work of several of my kitchen appliances, including the slow cooker, and now apparently a 'sous vide' machine too.

I'm so excited to continue to play around with different flavor variations on these amazing egg bites!
