What you need
- 1 tbs. extra virgin olive oil
- 1/4 cup onion, finely diced
- 1/4 cup red yellow and green peppers, finely diced
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 6 eggs
- 3/4 cup reduced fat cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1/4 cup of half and half
- 1/2 tsp. salt (or to taste)
- 1/2 tsp. pepper (or to taste)
What you do
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a sauté pan, heat olive oil.
- Add onion and peppers and cook for about 2 minutes.
- Add spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 more minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
- Sprinkle with a little salt and pepper.
- Remove from the heat.
- In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and the cheese.
- Season with the salt and pepper.
- Add the veggie mixture and stir until well-combined.
- Either use a silicone muffin pan or spray a muffin tin with non-stick spray.
- Evenly distribute the egg mixture amongst each muffin tin (I filled mine about ¾ of the way).
- Bake for about 20 minutes or until the muffins have turned a light golden brown around the edges.
- As soon as you remove the muffins from the oven, sprinkle with some more cheese.
- Store leftover muffins in the fridge in an airtight container.
- To reheat, stick in the microwave for about 20-30 seconds.
