Ingredients
- nonstick cooking spray
- 9 large whole eggs
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- black pepper (to taste)
- 3 tablespoons frozen spinach, thawed and drained
- 3 tablespoons diced tomato
- 3 tablespoons diced onion
- 3 tablespoons diced bell pepper
- 3 cooked bacon strips, chopped
- 2 ounces shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly coat a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray to ensure easy removal.
- In a large bowl, whisk the eggs along with salt and black pepper until fully combined.
- Fold in the spinach, tomato, onion, bell pepper, chopped bacon, and shredded cheddar cheese.
- Divide the egg mixture evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the egg muffins are fully set and lightly golden on top.
- Let cool slightly before removing from the tin. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days for quick breakfasts.
Pro tip: Make sure to drain the spinach well to avoid soggy muffins and help them set properly.
