Shiitake Bacon Egg Bites

This is a spin on egg Bites. You can substitute cream cheese with cottage cheese. To make shiitake bacon - roll the sliced shiitake mushrooms in a bowl with avocado oil and salt til coated. You lay out on parchment paper in a pan and sprinkle with smoked paprika for a Smokey bacon taste. Then bake in oven til the mushrooms start browning and are dried/crispy. 375° for about 20 min should work.
