Here’s a quick method for making beef stroganoff. You can make a complete supper in approximately 30 minutes with just a few simple ingredients and steak.

Prep Time: 10 mins
Cook Time: 15 mins
Additional Time: 15 mins
Total Time: 40 mins
Servings: 4
Yield: 4 egg bites

Ingredients

  1. nonstick cooking spray
  2. 4 slices cooked and crumbled bacon
  3. ⅔ cup shredded cheese
  4. ½ cup cottage cheese
  5. ¼ cup half-and-half
  6. 4 large eggs
  7. 1 pinch salt

Instructions

  1. Spray egg molds with nonstick cooking spray. Sprinkle crumbled bacon into the molds.
  2. Combine shredded cheese, cottage cheese, half-and-half, eggs, and salt in a blender; process until smooth. Divide mixture equally amongst the molds, filling each about 3/4 full. Cover with foil, wrapping tightly around the edges of the molds.
  3. Pour water into the inner pot of a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®). Close and lock the lid. Select steam setting according to manufacturer’s instructions; set timer for 8 minutes. Allow 5 to 10 minutes for pressure to build.
  4. Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer’s instructions, for 10 minutes. Release remaining pressure carefully using the quick-release method, about 5 minutes.
  5. Hold the mold over a wire rack and gently push egg bites out. Serve immediately or cool and store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
  6. I used precooked bacon from Costco(R) and milk instead of half-and-half. You can use any type of shredded cheese, such as Cheddar. I used Colby-Jack cheese.
  7. Egg bites can be frozen for up to 1 month.

Didn’t have bacon so used ham, chopped up, turned out prefect and we’re delicious.
