Ingredients
Method
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Generously grease a 12 cup muffin pan with olive oil spray or butter, coating the bottoms and sides of each cup.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped scallions and cook for 1 minute, stirring, until fragrant.
- Add the broccoli florets to the skillet. Sauté for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring often, until bright green and just tender. Season with half of the salt and half of the pepper. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until evenly blended and slightly frothy.
- Add the cottage cheese, milk, diced turkey halal turkey strips, shredded cheese, grated parmesan, and the remaining salt and pepper to the eggs. Stir until well combined.
- Fold the warm broccoli and scallion mixture into the egg mixture, using a spatula to distribute the vegetables evenly.
- Divide the mixture evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each nearly to the top. Tap the pan gently on the counter to release any large air bubbles.
- Bake for 20 to 23 minutes, until the muffins are puffed, lightly golden around the edges, and set in the centers.
- Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then run a small knife around the edges to loosen and lift them out. Serve warm or let cool completely for storage.
Notes
- Store cooled egg muffins in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- Reheat in the microwave for 20 to 30 seconds or in a 325°F oven for 8 to 10 minutes until warmed through.
