### Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 chicken sausages (casings removed)
- 1 cup chopped mushrooms
- 1 cup chopped fresh spinach
- 1/4 cup chopped onion
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 8 large eggs
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

### Instructions

1. **Prepare the Sausage and Vegetables:**
    - Heat olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the sausages and cook, breaking them up with a spoon, until browned, about 5 minutes.
    - Add the mushrooms, spinach, onion, and salt. Cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are tender and any liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

2. **Mix the Egg Batter:**
    - In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, cheddar cheese, and milk until well combined.

3. **Combine and Fill Muffin Cups:**
    - Add the cooked sausage and vegetable mixture to the egg mixture, stirring until evenly distributed.
    - Divide the mixture evenly among the nonstick muffin cups or silicone muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.

4. **Air Fry the Egg Bites:**
    - Preheat the air fryer to 300°F (150°C). Place the filled muffin cups in the air fryer basket.
    - Cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the egg bites are set and slightly golden on top. You may need to work in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
    - Let the egg bites cool for a few minutes before removing them from the muffin cups. Serve warm.
