Large Bowl
12-cup Muffin tin
Ingredients
- 1 cup lightly packed baby spinach chopped
- 3/4 cup finely diced red bell pepper about 1 small pepper
- 3/4 cup finely diced green bell pepper about 1 small pepper
- 3/4 cup quartered cherry tomatoes or grape tomatoes, about 1 cup whole tomatoes

- 1/4 teaspoon salt, dried basil, oregano black pepper or cayenne pepper.
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese plus additional to sprinkle on top
- Optional toppings: avocado salsa, hot sauce, freshly chopped parsley
Instructions
Prepare the Oven and Muffin Tin
Place a rack in the center of your oven and preheat it to 350°F. Lightly coat a standard 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray. Evenly divide the chopped spinach, red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and tomatoes among the muffin cups.
Mix the Egg Mixture
In a large bowl or a measuring cup with a spout, whisk together the eggs, egg whites, salt, basil, oregano, and pepper until fully combined. Carefully pour the egg mixture into each muffin cup, filling them about three-quarters of the way full. Sprinkle the crumbled feta evenly over the top of each cup.
Bake and Cool
Bake the egg muffins for 24 to 28 minutes, or until they are fully set. Let them cool for a few minutes, then use a butter knife to gently loosen and remove each muffin from the tin. Enjoy!
