Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (or 380°F if your oven runs cold like mine).
  • Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray, or use silicone muffin cups for easier removal.
  • Chop all vegetables into small pieces.
  • Heat a small pan over medium heat and sauté the onions and peppers for about 3-4 minutes until softened.
  • In a large bowl, crack the eggs and add the milk. Whisk until well combined.
  • Add the sautéed veggies, spinach, cheese, salt, pepper, and garlic powder to the egg mixture. Stir to combine.
  • Pour the mixture evenly into the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
  • Bake for 17-20 minutes until the eggs are set and slightly golden on top.
  • Let cool for at least 5 minutes before removing from the muffin tin.
  • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 2 months.

Notes

- Make sure to squeeze excess moisture from the spinach to avoid soggy muffins.
- These reheat really well! Just microwave for 30 seconds from refrigerated or about 1 minute from frozen.
- Feel free to customize with whatever veggies, meats, or cheeses you have on hand. These are super versatile!
- Don't leave these out overnight like I did that one time... learn from my mistake!
