Ingredients

Eggs

  • 6 large eggs (opt for organic for freshness)
  • 1 cup spinach (chopped, frozen spinach can work too)
  • 1 cup bell peppers (diced, any color works)
  • 0.5 cup onion (finely chopped, shallots are a tasty alternative)
  • 1 cup cheese (shredded cheddar or feta)
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt (reduce for lower sodium)
  • 0.25 teaspoon pepper (try smoked paprika for a twist)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for sautéing vegetables)

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly coat a muffin tin with cooking spray or olive oil.
  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, sauté onions and bell peppers until tender, about 3-4 minutes.
  • Whisk eggs with salt and pepper until frothy, then fold in sautéed vegetables and spinach.
  • Pour mixture into muffin tin, filling each about three-quarters full, then sprinkle cheese on top.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes until set and golden. Cool for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
