Prep Time: 10 minutes

Bake time: ~20 minutes

Yields: 12 muffins

Ingredients

  • 10 large eggs (preferably pasture-raised)
  • ¼ cup milk (can use almond or other nut milk)
  • Olive oil (just a small amount to coat the muffin tins)
  • ½ cup chopped tomatoes
  • ¾ cup chopped red peppers
  • 1 cup chopped spinach
  • 1 clove of garlic (chopped)
  • ½ tbsp dill
  • Salt and pepper
  • ½  cup shredded cheese (optional)

Healthy AND delicious! These protein-backed bites are a perfect addition to your morning routine.

Instructions

Heat oven to 375 degrees and coat a 12-cup cupcake pan with olive oil, butter or coconut oil. You want to coat each one quite a bit, so the muffins won’t stick

In a mixing bowl combine the eggs, milk, garlic, dill, salt & pepper and blend together with a whisk. Add in all the veggies, and the cheddar cheese if using. Stir together.

Pour the egg mix into the muffin cups. The cups should be almost full.

Cook for 18-24 minutes. The center should be set and the muffins should look puffy. If they are not, leave them in for a couple more minutes.

Know that they will lose some of their puffiness while cooling. Enjoy with salsa and plain greek yogurt. You can store these for up to about 1 week.
