Which Cycle of the 17 Day Diet Is this Egg Muffin Recipe Approved For?

If you’re on the 17 Day Diet, this recipe is approved for all cycles. No changes are necessary.

However, if you want to experiment with different ingredients that are approved during Cycle 2 or 3 (such as potatoes), then obviously they will be approved later in the diet.

Which Phase of the Kickstart Diet Can I Have These Egg Bites?

If you happen to be on the 17 Day Kickstart Diet, you can have these egg bites starting on the 4-Day Soak Up Phase when eggs are allowed. 

However, skip the cheese if you want these starting on Day 4. Otherwise, you’ll need to wait until The 10-Stabilize Phase when both eggs and cheese are allowed.

If you’re not entirely sure which foods are allowed during each phase, make sure you check out my 17 Day Kickstart Diet Food List.

Keto Diet Friendly Egg Muffins

These Spinach & Mushroom Egg Bites are definitely Keto Diet Friendly. Make sure you use full-fat cheese when you make these. 

If you need to increase your fat intake, you can use a little bit of heavy whipping cream, too!
